ITO San, A Touch of Gold or Silver

Sometimes, a knitted piece doesn’t need much to become something truly special. Just a subtle shimmer can be enough, and that’s exactly what ITO San is made for.

ITO San is a fine sewing and embroidery thread available in gold or silver, perfect for both hand and machine embroidery. Depending on the background fabric, it comes with either a white or black base thread, allowing the metallic effect to shine beautifully on both light and dark fabrics.

But of course, San isn’t just for embroidery. Used as a companion thread for knitting or crochet, it adds a subtle, elegant shimmer to your project. I especially love using it to highlight individual sections or small details. That way, your knitted piece gets a touch of glamour without having to go full-on glitter.

Whether you’re creating delicate embroidery, adding special accents, or simply weaving a little gold or silver between your stitches, ITO San invites you to play with the details and create something uniquely your own.

Why do you only offer a small selection of yarn?
I carefully handpick every yarn to ensure it perfectly complements my designs and is a joy to knit with. For me, quality always comes before quantity—so you can be sure every single fiber is just right.

Are the yarns sustainable?
Yes! Sustainability is deeply important to me. I only partner with manufacturers who ensure fair working conditions and prioritize eco-friendly materials. That way, you can knit with a clear conscience.

How do I find the right yarn for my project?
My patterns and kits state exactly which yarn works best. I’m also always happy to advise you—I want you to enjoy your knitting project from start to finish.

Can I also buy yarn individually?
Of course! Select yarns are available directly in the shop so you can create your project exactly as you envision it.
