    King Tut by Superior Threads is cotton and comes on 2000 yard cones. However, I've found that polyester threads (Bottom Line is my favorite) are less linty than the cotton ones.

    cotton thread is 'linty' sorry- a couple non-linty thread choices are; Aurafil; polyester; and monofilament *invisible* in 'smoke' .
