Filament Silk Wrapped Gimp is a gorgeous, versatile thread that was commonly used for 17th century embroidery. This thread was made by wrapping a silk core thread with another silk thread around the outside, making a very fine cord. The result is a stiff thread similar to gold threads yet coloured. It can be couched down as an outline or used to fill in shapes. The silk gimp is also fine enough to be placed in a needle eye and stitched from basic knots to needlelace. 10 metres per reel.
