Description

"Hidamari" is the COSMO sashiko thread, meaning "sunny spot," designed to bring a fun, bright, warm and happy experience to your stitching endeavors. Made in Japan, this 100% cotton thread is revered for its smooth texture and durability against fraying. Perfect for traditional Japanese sashiko stitching, as well as mending, knitting, crocheting, knotting, embellishing, and more. Variegated thread is a single-color thread that naturally transitions in color through long and short repeats. These versatile colors are suitable for both Western and Japanese aesthetics.

In 1933, Naozo Nomura founded a trading company in Kyoto, which evolved into today's LECIEN. The name "LECIEN" was inspired by a French company. LECIEN began manufacturing embroidery post-war and introduced two color-dyed lace, leading to the foundation of their lace business. They were the first in Japan to create "All-Over Embroidery" for clothing. In 1992, "Nomura Co., Ltd" became "LECIEN Co., Ltd," emphasizing quality in their products to satisfy customers.
