Natural 100% Silk Thread, Handmade Embroidery Thread Silk Floss 8 Colors 110m Each (21)

This is beautiful silk thread. However, to save anyone else from making the same mistake I did……This thread is only suitable for embroidery. It is very thin. I bought it for needlepoint, but it doesn’t even begin to cover a size 14 canvas. I think it is too thin even for petite point needlepointing. It doesn’t even work for needlepoint if you double it. So don’t waste your time unless you’ll use it for embroidery.

These are gorgeous, soft, fine silk floss for hand embroidery. Please read the reviews that talk about how to wind this floss into a bobbin - you will need patience and some equipment. But the thread itself is high quality, with a beautiful shine and fantastic value. The fact that I got a gradient is amazing. I cannot recommend this enough for people who want to make beautiful embroidery.

Gets tangled very easily

This silk thread is really soft and shiny. The colors are bright and look beautiful on fabric. Each roll has a lot of thread, so it lasts a long time. It doesn’t tangle easily, and it’s smooth to work with. The thread feels strong but still gentle, which makes it perfect for embroidery projects. I used it to stitch flowers and leaves, and the finished piece looks really nice. The way the light catches the silk makes every color pop. It’s also easy to separate the strands if you need to use fewer. Everything came neatly packed, and all the colors matched what I saw online. This thread makes my work look extra special.

Not what I expected at all. Image is far larger than actual item. One set arrived tangled.

I’m used to cotton embroidery floss and gave this silk kind a try. It wasn’t what I was expecting. The colors are as pictured which is a plus.It is not possible to easily separate out a strand to work with. The skeins easily come undone and tangle. The thread is shiny like silk. But it didn’t smell like silk often does and didn’t quite feel like 100 percent silk. If you have any roughness to your hands the silk will snag.I was able to double up strands to get something thicker to sew with but even then the floss tangled easily while sewing. If you’re used to working with standard cotton embroidery floss, this is not comparable in texture and is harder to work with. I won’t order this again.

Do not waste your money or time. Quality just isn’t there. Great photos posted, yet, what one receives is just poor quality item/version .

Impossible to crochet with - The quantity is ridiculously small for the price - Look more like a yarn for sewing - Highly to AVOID because it is a total waste of money !!!!! I would suggest Amazon to review the description in order to prevent to have more highly disappointed buyers.
