Sulky Of America 215d 40wt Sliver Metallic Nylon/Polyester Thread, 250 yd, Gold

I use this “thread” to grid my needlework fabric. Specifically, I use it for cross stitch. When I grid the fabric, it helps me keep my place on the fabric, which means less mistakes to “frog” or remove out.I had previously used thin fishing line but when I saw someone use this product, I thought I would give it a try.I'm glad I did as it is much easier to work with. I can stop and start my lines easier and it is softer when I hold it in my hand (as I stitch in hand instead of on a hoop or frame.)I also like how portable this thread is. It fits well in my project bags and I love that the “top” on each side moves up and down to release and then lock in the end of the thread.While it is called thread, it is really a continuous piece of nylon and your needle doesn't pierce through. I found that happened with regular thread and it made it very difficult to remove.I bought several colors so I can use the one that shows up best on the specific fabric I use for projects. Gold worked well on light blue/gray and blue worked well on ivory/cream coffee stained.I'll try to include pictures to show it in use. I also should mention that I use an 8 stitch up and 2 stitch down as my grid pattern.

My wife used it to make products for online sales and was pleased with it.

Very good thread for a metallic. It’s my fave brand to use.

Used for linen napkins. Very good product.
