Zoe M. ★★★★★

I was worried metallic thread would be a pain, but this glides through the fabric without any fraying or snagging. The colors are brilliantly rich and the twist holds its shape perfectly.

James ★★★★★

The braid is so tight and smooth that my needle glides through without any of the usual snagging or fraying. These colors have a rich sparkle that really makes the stitches pop against dark fabric.

Elizabeth N. ★★★★★

I’ve been looking for metallic floss that doesn’t fray or snag mid-stitch, and this set delivers perfectly. The threads have such a bright sparkle and glide smoothly through the fabric without twisting. My only tiny complaint is that the colors are so gorgeous I want every palette.
