Belfast Irish Linen (waxed)
Product Description
This is the famous Crawford Threads linen thread, from Belfast, Ireland. This is a very fine, 4 ply, #18 linen cord. It drapes very well. The light waxing makes this thread very easy to pull through holes in beads, gourds, baskets, etc., as well as holding knots very well.

| Denim | Plum | Yellow | Black | |
| Brown | Slate Grey | Red | Natural | |
