Thread Lengths & Weights

Stranded – 6 stranded thread is divisible into 6 strands and can be used as a single strand or multiple strands together. CGT stranded threads come in three lengths:

  • 5m (5 yd, 16.85 in) cut into 50cm (19.685 in) lengths,
  • 10m (10 yd, 93 in) cut into 50cm (19.685 in) lengths and
  • 50m (54 yd, 24.5in) in one continuous strand.

By special order, CGT threads also come in two weights - Perle 8 and Perle 12.  Perle thread has a sheen finish because it is a round thread. The higher the number of Perle – the finer the thread. Perle 12 is equivalent to 2 strands of stranded cotton. Perle 8 is equivalent to 4 strands of stranded cotton. CGT Perle threads are 15m (16 yd, 40 in) continuous.

Our Clever Packaging
A note from the dye room

Every skein of Cottage Garden Threads is hand-dyed in small batches, giving our hand-dyed threads the depth and character only true small-batch dyeing can create. We've spent years perfecting the batch-to-batch consistency that's rare among hand-dyed threads, but because no two dye days are ever identical, we follow a simple rule of thumb: buy enough, plus one. That extra skein keeps your project within a single dye lot, and you'll spot the symbol on our packaging as a friendly reminder. Curious about how hand-dyed thread dye lots work?

Shipping & dispatch

Our small-batch studio handles every step in-house - from dye pot to packaging to post, so here's what to expect. In-stock colours are usually dispatched within 48 hours, though during sale periods this can extend to 5–7 days while we work through a flurry of orders. For full details, see our Shipping Policy.

Notes on colour

We photograph every hand-dyed thread in natural light and colour-check each image carefully, so what you see on our website is as true to the real skein as we can make it. That said, every monitor, phone, and browser displays colour a little differently - so the shade on your screen may vary subtly from the thread in your hand. If you're matching a specific colour or planning a treasured project, we're always happy to help guide you to the right shade - just get in touch with the studio.
