That usually means an uncut gem.

The wiki is your friend.

"Rough color" is indeed the code for uncut gems, which you can only obtain through mining. In rare cases the moody dwarf will want a very particular kind of uncut gem -- I once had a dwarf who wouldn't accept any of my unforbidden indigo tourmalines; he only scurried off to fill the order when I unforbid a citrine, which was in his likes list.

Which would explain why one of my clothmakers didn't accept any thread I had.
She rests in a coffin now.

Sometimes "thread" means cloth, silk, or, presumably, wool specifically.

Then i guess it was silk I needed.. since I had the others.. or I simply didnt have enough?
