DESCRIPTION
The Forage Range by Lisa Mattock is a collection inspired by the beauty waiting just beyond the garden gate.
Drawing on Lisa's previous life as a florist and her enduring love of nature, this palette celebrates the flowers, foliage, seedpods and wild treasures that can be gathered while wandering through fields, forests and cottage gardens. Each colourway is named after something that can be foraged, reflecting Lisa's fascination with the rich colours, subtle tones and wonderful textures found in the natural world.
From soft botanical greens and earthy neutrals to delicate florals and weathered hues, the Forage Range captures the quiet beauty of nature in thread form.
Designed to mix and mingle effortlessly, these hand-dyed threads invite slow stitching, mindful making and the simple pleasure of bringing a little of the outdoors into every project.
A palette inspired by nature, created for stitchers who find beauty in the wild and wonder in the details.

This set includes all 28 colours in the Forage Range.
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.
