Highest quality silamide thread on the market! Silamide thread is a 2-ply pre-waxed nylon thread. A favorite thread of costume designers, tutu-makers, beaders, quilters, tailors and dressmakers for years for hand-sewing because it is very strong and resilient. It ties tight knots and glides effortlessly through fabric without knotting and it rarely puckers. It is very thin and fine, so virtually invisible when hand-tacking tutus. Because it is so thin, the colors tend to blend really well with various shades. Priced per N.B.T. Furrier Waxed Skein (675 yards). Manufactured in the USA. NEW! Light Pink, Dusty Rose, and Light/Medium Blue! These colors have not been available for several years, but are now back in stock. Silamide Thread is a fine tailoring thread perfect for tacking classical ballet tutus. It will not look thick and messy, but has as much strength as thicker threads. To open, tear or cut on the package perforation, then cut the threads where they loop around the inner cardboard. Pull out one thread at a time.
