Anyone who knows what Candlewicking embroidery is…?

I’m in the Chicago area and I am trying to find Candlewicking supplies… Simple, 100% cotton natural muslin fabric and 100% cotton natural candlewicking thread..
I looked online at some of the major craft/fabric stores in the area but there is nothing on line. I went to one of the stores the other day and the girl took me to the candle isle.
Does anyone know where I can find the right thread and maybe even if it’s available in different colors…

You can substitute regular embroidery floss or perle cotton – read more about Candlewicking at this link –
