Actually... I think it's a chemical used to dye the thread. I've had 'dentical-same problem with the same colour/shade in two other "lines" - -- one other cotton and one linen.
I am sure the 'dye' is the culprit. I was given a set of white tea towels with coloured stripes, two of each colour. Within a few years the green stripes were disintegrating; all the other have lasted many more years.
