Full description
Balls of vintage Chain Mercer thread by Coats (size 20) - commonly used for thread crochet as well as lace knitting and tatting. But they can be used in many more crafts, including needlepoint, cross-stitch and hand quilting - as well as weaving, mini amigurumi and decorative textile art.
A mercerised cotton thread, each ball weighs 10g each and dyed to shade 610, which I think is Ecru (it looks a natural beige colour).
I am selling these in sets of two balls (a pair). There are currently 4 pairs still available.
These re new "old stock" that are unused and have been stored in their original cardboard box with a protective inner layer of tissue, that has kept them in pristine condition away from dust and sunlight.
If all remaining balls are purchased together, I will happily send you the box. It is a bit on the tatty side but a charming piece of sewing history, and will keep your yarn clean until you use it.
From my own craft supply collection that I am de-stashing. I originally bought these from local lady who was no longer able to make her beloved hand-crocheted lace doilies and tablecloths as her eyesight was fading, and she was hoping they would be of use to someone else.
