COVID-19 UPDATE
Most of our thread and ribbon suppliers are either overwhelmed with orders and having trouble keeping up, or having trouble getting base materials. So the wait can be 3-6 months for out of stock colors.
Hand-dyed thread vendors are taking 6-12 weeks to fill orders if they have base product to dye. If not, they too are in the 3-6 months range.
Be prepared that due to COVID-19 the disruption to the supply chain and vendors ability to supply product will continue into 2022 and perhaps even into 2021. Please plan well ahead for your projects and know that everyone is doing the best they can under the circumstances, but there are no easy fixes in sight.
If you've not used our on-line catalog before we suggest you read our Ordering Information page, which has details about using the cart, estimated shipping costs, etc. You'll find accessories, embellishments, fabrics and more items off the main Catalog page.
We do not have a real-time inventory system nor do we have plans to ever implement one. The threads listed here are those that we typically carry in the shop or special order regularly. Adding a thread to your shopping cart does not imply we have it in stock. Please check with us if knowing that before you order is critical. We are a brick and mortar shop and our hours are posted at the bottom of the page.
While we have photos of many of the threads we carry which you may use as a general reference, we do not recommend making a color choice based solely on the photos. Dyelots change over time, sometimes by a substantial amount and photos are not updated with any regularity. Monitors will also display color differently. If you are trying to match a color, we suggest giving us a reference like DMC, Anchor or Needlepoint Inc. to match to. Then we can see what we have in current dyelots that might work for you.
Single Dyelot?
For most of our threads you can check mark a box to let us know that you want them in a single dyelot (SDL). If you are doing a large piece and you want to know the threads were dyed at the same time, it is the only way to inform us that you need us to ensure that. Most thread companies do not dyelot number their threads so we have to order enough to make sure you get them in one dyelot. And for even those that do use dyelot numbers, we can rarely re-order a specific dyelot. Some threads can be wildly different with their dyelots, while others change very subtly. Anchor and DMC rarely change but most of the hand-dyed threads change quite a bit over time (even Au ver a Soie threads change quite a lot). So knowing when you place your order that the dyelot matters is most helpful to us.
To use our searchable thread catalog just type in the color, number or other description you are looking for. Unlike our pages below, which allow you to add a lot at once, the searchable catalog allows you to add one thread at a time, but will list anything that matches your search. Useful for when you don't know who the vendor is or the name of the thread, just the color. Don't include the name of the manufacturer in your search, it doesn't always show up correctly. Just search for the color name or number. If you want the entire thread catalog type *.* as the search term. If you want to do some Power Shopping check out the pages below by vendor and thread. If you're looking for an old Needle Necessities color try searching for NN and the color number (e.g. NN 100) or SpringII and the color number (e.g. SpringII 301). You can check the ThreadworX website for all of their potential substitutes. If you don't find a color in the searchable catalog, look in the lists below. We update the full pages first, so the searchable catalog can lag for new colors. If you are looking for the newest colors in any thread you can search for New 20xx with Match ALL Keywords and you'll get the list of our newest offerings. | |
Threads or ribbons not listed below can be found on the Thread Inventory page, where you can enter the color name/number if we carry that particular type of thread. If you need a thread we don't stock either call us to see if we can special order it, or add a note to the Special Instructions when you checkout. For threads marked Special Order if we don't have them in stock we can order them. We also carry Color Cards for a number of threads (there are none for hand-dyed threads). You'll find them on our Color Card page. | |
