Love these will buy again

As discribed, easy to use. Nice colors.

When I first saw these I was interested in the fact the threads were waxed. Unsure why, it caught my curiosity so I ordered them. There is a warning image on the advert page that states the variegated matching of the thread cannot be supported for its matching ability if adhering to the instructions is not met. So I have to make sure a printout is made to follow the instructions if I want them to match as I braid. However, I thought the idea of a variegated thread/yard is done to be variegated at the end result. Another thing I found weird in the warning image was it said there are 4 wire clips. I do not see any wire clips, they are all plastic and I do not see any wire anywhere, only waxed thread. The plastic things included are not clips either, they have hooks on them. The only thing I find as a reason for wax on the thread is to make them stronger. There is a small sheet of information written on one side. There is also what looks like measuring devices made of soft plastic in two sizes. I think one if for measuring a wrist to make a bracelet and one for measure a finger for making a ring. Looks like a good kit.

very pretty color combinations. Love it.

Sturdy thick strong thread that is uniquely variegated with complementary tones of choice, in vibrant or profound options. I picked Vibrant and might be back for the profound later. These are going to work well with intricate crafts that alternate color as you go for a unique effect in crochet, macrame, bracelet and necklace making, crafts, hand sewing embroidery and detailing, and more. The colors are bright and beautifully crafted and the paper insert lets you know when and how to cut the strands for use so that your project will have matching strings if it matters, if it doesn't matter it at least lets you know that a new batch could be on the spool which can change the effect slightly during your projects. If this change-over is unsettling, this set might not be for you. If you don't mind there might be a noticeable difference the things you make will be a kind of boho mix-match. This set of 8 spools also comes with a wrist measuring tape, a finger ring measuring tape, and four-thread organizers to help you sort out the threads for your project to line up the variegated pattern if you want it to line up. At the cost of this divided up with 8 spools, they equate to 3.12 per spool but you also get a few extra items included so if divided up by all parts (14pc) it makes each item 1.79 which is fair and decent either way. Don't want the bonus items? Give them to a local crafter. Excellent threads, good value, multipurpose use for crafts.
