Kamito Paper Threads are made of traditional Japanese washi papers, made but cutting the paper into thin pieces which are then twisted into thread. The paper thread is naturally dyed with plant or vegetable dyes. 

These threads have been made by artisans as far back as the 17th century and are lightweight strong material ideal for bookbinding and craft applications. Can be waxed as you would a linen thread.

Available in 6 colour options, each dyed with the below listed plants

• White – Undyed
  
• Yellow – Amur Cork Tree
• Green – Amur Cork Tree and Indigo
• Blue – Indigo
• Purple – Logwood
• Red – Rubia Argyi

*Due to the nature of the dying process the colour will vary slightly from thread to thread and may slightly differ from spool to spool.

Threads are sold individually as 20m spools.
