sewing thread
Needle's thin companion
Sewing thread is thin, flexible cord used to stitch fabric together by hand or machine.
It comes in various materials—cotton, polyester, silk—and weights suited to different fabrics and purposes.
Thread is wound on spools and passed through a needle's eye: I need thread that matches this fabric.
