Love it
This is my second purchase from Beyond Measure, expanding my range of colours. It's a lovely thread to work with, in a rainbow of colours. Promptly delivered with hand-written notes on the invoice, which adds a personal touch! Thank you, again

Embroidery sharps
Amazing! Really easy to thread and do ‘what they say on the tin’ - they are sharp and I’ve used them on fine silk voile, woven cotton and even to quilt through layered fabric with equal success. Super happy!
I have a box of the 40m cards and like to refill it when I am running one low. I also buy the larger hanks for my favourite colours. They are excellent quality, sew beautifully in my sashiko work and the colours do not run when washed. They are the best.

What a delicious book.
I love pretty much anything published by Laine, they have outdone themselves with this issue however.
Immediately on flicking through I bookmarked three 'must knits' and really enjoyed the article on Satu Rämö too ( if you've not read her novels now is a very good time to start).
