I suggest using short lengths of wool threads to stitch with to minimise wear on the thread as it is continually pulled through the fabric. This is especially true of the singles threads; the plied ones are more wear-resistant.

Any of these skeins may leach a little dye. Please consider pre-soaking skeins in warm water to remove residual dye.
