Sands Flax Flower Box is a series of twelve set boxes containing our finest vintage and contemporary linen threads: 14 skeins in total (264 meter)
1 x Linda Linen, 1960s, 14m
1 x Knox’s of Kilbirnie, 1960’s, 18m of colour #585 or similar. Both Linda and Knox's are very rare and were often used for ecclesiastical embroidery for their lustre and high quality.
4 x 30 meter very fine linen thread, beautiful for delicate embroidery: this thread is our nearest to the fine linen thread common in Swedish linen embroidery from the 50s and 60s, HV-linen.
8 x skeins of our contemporary linen threads
Three chenille needles on a vintage paper cut and a postcard from the Nordiska Archive are included in the gift wrapped box: the patterns on the card and needle paper vary throughout the year, and we always add a little surprise when we ship out these set boxes.
