Embodiments of the present technology may permit for native, intact, natural, human-derived, or allograft-derived fibers to be used as threads for suturing. Embodiments may include a thread for suturing. The thread may include a first portion, which includes a fascia fiber. The first portion may have a first end that includes the fascia fiber. The thread may also include a second portion including a non-human-derived fiber. The second portion may have a first end that includes the non-human-derived fiber. The first end of the second portion may be attached to the first end of the first portion. Embodiments may include a method of forming a thread. The method may include attaching a first end of a fascia fiber to a first end of a first non-human-derived fiber. The method may also include attaching a second end of the fascia fiber to a first end of a second non-human-derived fiber.
