Embroidery Floss 125 Skeins Cross Stitch Thread Rainbow Color Multicolor DIY Floss with 16 Needles

So relieved to see that these threads lived up to my expectations. They appear to be good quality and have same shine as my DMC threads. There are only a few (8) repeats so I’m really pleased to have such diverse colors to choose from for $10. I also received several groupings with sequential numbers which I like because it gives some slight variations necessary for transitions or gradient effects. The overall color selection was excellent and there were plenty of neutrals as well as spectrum colors (which some of these listings seem to lack).It should be noted that there appear to be 2 different types of thread in the mix - all have only 1 wrap/tag around middle of skein but as you’ll notice in picture, some have the typical DMC skew number/tag set up (virtually identical to DMC) and the others have a generic tag that is sometimes glued to the thread itself (sometimes this snagged an area on thread but was otherwise harmless).It seems to me that the threads in the generic paper are more like the polyester blend generic “friendship bracelet” skeins than the DMC quality threads - they’re shinier and seem to split more easily (and also were the ones to tangle and twist more easily when embroidering - though minimally so in my opinion). When stitched up you really can’t tell one way or the other but I know this can alter the experience for the artist and this matters to some people.I found the DMC-copy cat tags to have threads that are identical (to naked eye) to DMC colors represented (see photo with 2 skeins of “3835” - Real DMC is on plastic spool). I do not have any DMC threads with numbers I received from the generic tag grouping. But perhaps the photos depicting such discrepancies feature these threads?The listing was clear and not unnecessarily vague and with Amazon guarantee I thought I’d give these a shot for $10 and I’m glad I did. I recently gambled on a listing for Anchor threads from India (for 3x cost) and was not so lucky. I will buy these again (probably multiple times) in future instead even if it’s likely that some repeats will occur and that some numbers may not have exact DMC equivalents. There are so many similar listings out there for this kind of thing but I was overall very satisfied with this specific offer and would recommend it based on my experience.

Nice thread! Wish it had more colors lots of green and gray brown colors I got was hoping for more of the rainbow with purples blue pinks! Not just all greens

These are great but out of 125 colors there is no true purple color. They are either a maroonish purple or a grey purple. Kinda disappointed

These are amazing!. Very glad I decided to buy these - they really filled out my collection and they are pretty, appear to be well made. Only had a couple repeats. This was just a really good purchase... good for the money - very satisfied

The floss is cotton and a pleasure to work with. Some of the colors are duplicated while others are not. The variety of colors is large enough to do several projects with lots of colors.

these threads are great and the needles are excellent as well . these threads have every color in the book . I make mini mice to sell for charity bazars so this floss is excellent .

Needles had small eyes and hard to thread. Floss was not as good a quality as I was lead to believe. More for crafts than embroidery.

Exactly as described and arrived quickly! Very happy with my purchase!
