Gorgeous threads

I am delighted to have discovered this supply of glorious , naturally dyed wool thread. The colour are perfect for my palette and various darning, embroidery projects and far exceed any yarns I have used previously. The subtle marked effect is perfect.
My order was delivered swiftly and Penny was extremely helpful in resending the correct shade when I used the wrong code.
The whole website is a treasure trove
