Woad — Awen · 80% Merino Wool / 20% Silk

Woad. Awen thread is Storyteller Stitchery's 80% merino wool & 20% silk blend, with a soft, resilient hand that gives finished needlepoint a rich, velvety depth. Hand-dyed in our Arizona studio, and sold with 10 yards on pre-wound cards, ready to stitch. Awen works beautifully for: needlepoint on 13ct canvas (our recommended pairing for full-coverage stitch work and beginner kits); visible mending and darning on wool and mixed-fiber garments. This color is also offered on Seren (merino & silk thread for 18ct needlepoint and embroidery), and on Moonspun (100% silk thread for needlepoint and embroidery. This color was created in collaboration with embroiderer Jessica Long as part of the Storyteller Stitchery x Jessica Long Strawberry Thief collection.
