Mrs. Susan C.: I honestly thought I didn't get all my skeins. The package is efficiently wrapped with suction, so it looked like less... But they are all there! Beautiful, bright colors. Can't wait to start my project!

Maite G: Compré este set para que mi hija haga pulseras de macramé y a ella le ha gustado mucho y ha hecho ya muchas y de momento los colores resisten bien a las duchas.
De los colores más vistosos o habituales hay mas de una madeja. Creo que la calidad para hacer pulseras es suficiente.
El envío llegó antes de lo previsto.

Sandra ZanellaSandra Zanella: Ho utilizzato questi fili per dei braccialetti. I colori sono molto belli e il prodotto è esattamente come mi aspettavo! Per chi è abituato ad utilizzare filo da ricamo tipo dmc,questi sono leggermente più rigidi. Non credo lo userò per ricamare ( per questo ho dato 4 stelle),ma per fare braccialetti è un prodotto davvero ottimo!

Jennifer Lee: The product description is accurate for how many skeins and the colour selection that you'll get. I was a bit worried at first when it arrived because the skeins are randomly placed in the plastic bag, so it looks like you're getting a greater number of lime green and bright yellow skeins. But after sorting, I found this was not the case.

My one real complaint about these is a bit of a quality issue - they're not as glossy as other skeins I've bought previously, and tend to stick to one another, especially while doing braids or other friendship bracelet-like projects. I found this frustrating. I'm sure with practice this will be less of an issue but it's not what I remember experiencing before, so I will note it here.

Otherwise the set itself is very good; I like the colour selection and the price for money is decent.

Noelle C.Noelle C.: I wrote an initial bad review...Was looking for a DMC substitute thread and this comes nothing close to DMC brand, BUT, when I started working with it for cross stitching, found it was pretty good quality.

CONS:
1) DMC has a gloss and shine to it and this thread did not have any (except 4 colors out of the pack were glossy so it's mixed quality threads-inconsistant). You can see from one of my pictures attached.

2) There is no # on the thread labels to determine what color reference to use. So if you use this thread, you can't refer to anything to match it unless you bring the skein in to swatch the right color. And I ordered this again and the colors are not the same.

3) Their color selection is minimal. Mostly primary colors and pastels. Not enough hued colors for degredation.

PROS:
1) The thread does not frey or break and fuzz while using it. It keeps a pretty good consistent stitch all the way through (except for lighter colors...but those colors are horrible for most brands).

2) The colors do appear more vibrant than I expected and it pops off my Aida fabric. All colors of fabric.

3) This came with enough repeat skeins so I...
