Sashiko

Sashiko is a style of Japanese embroidery that has become very popular outside of Japan. Our range of sashiko products are curated to suit a wide range of project requirements, including thread, kits, fabric, patterns, and accessories. A Japanese folk-art that had its origins in Edo period Japan, it has evolved over centuries from a frugal necessity into the form of decorative stitching so cherished today. The word Sashiko (刺し子) literally means ’little stabs’, a reference to the simple running stitch employed in repeating or interlocking patterns. The geometric properties of the traditional Japanese patterns are really fascinating and offer so much creative potential for embroiderers of all skill levels.
