Threadneedle Street Home Page

RETURN POLICY ON THREAD: Like most needlework retailers, we do not allow returns on thread except when there has been an error on our part. Please keep this in mind before you buy. When in doubt, we recommend you buy and test a small amount prior to ordering larger quantities. We have very low shipping charges of approximately $2.00 for small thread orders to enable you to do this affordably. There are many reasons for this, but a primary reason is that once the thread has left our store, we can no longer verify that it has been kept clean and unused, and in most cases, we can no longer tell which dye lot a given thread came from. Therefore you can be confident that the thread you buy from us is clean, unused, and that we can send you multiple skeins from a single dye lot when that is important. If you buy thread from a company that accepts returned thread, how do you know where the thread they sell you has been before it gets to you?

Cotton thread is probably the most commonly used and available embroidery thread today. It is versatile, coming in a number of finishes, both shiny and matte, and a number of weights. It is a staple of a needleworker's repertoire.

Price per 20 yard skein of ThreadworX Overdyed Floss: $3.90

GENTLE ART OVERDYED FLOSS (also known as Sampler Threads and sometimes abbreviated GAST) is overdyed floss from yet another company. The colors have been developed with samplers in mind, and tend to be more monochromatic and subtle than those of the Leah's and Needle Necessities' overdyed flosses. No color cards are available, and dye lots vary considerably. The manufacturer currently offers these in 5 and 10 yard skeins, but we normally stock them only in the 10 yard skeins (which are more economical on a per yard basis). Colors are:
