Braided Silk Thread

These silk threads are soft, strong, and full of subtle sheen, making them the perfect companion for your next braid, tassel, or decorative detail. After all, there’s nothing quite like silk when it comes to kumihimo—that traditional Japanese art of braiding.

Each skein gives you 8 meters of 100% silk, with colors that range from gentle pastels to deep, saturated hues. 

Length: 26.2 feet (8m) per skein

Made in Japan

*Kumihimo typically requires a "kumihimo disk" or a more traditional marudai braiding stand to hold the threads in place. The threads are systematically moved around the disk or marudai in a set order, intertwining them to form the braid. The pattern depends on the sequence of thread movements and their starting positions.
