You are right.
The two were sold together, but the two weren't together. I am not satisfied with the quality
According to what I'm doing, either one of them is nice to me. As soon as the bamboo hoops have held the cloth, they do not tighten anymore, unlike the plastic ones.
The two were sold There was a poor quality to them that didn't please me.

The crafty one in our family is my wife, so I'll have to let her know what she thinks My first experience with bamboo hoops is with these. Feeling good is the best. It is smooth and has a lot of detail Quite light weight. As a traditional hoops & chains user, I use traditional hardwood hoops There is no comparison between these and those. The rounded edges and the white background are appealing to me There is a lot of fabric on the body. In spite of the fact that I do not understand embroidery or stitching myself, I was able to score myself a bonus point by purchasing Comparatively to the ones she normally uses, they seem to be liked a lot by my wife. So far she hasn't requested me to replace a screw, sand down a rough spot, or adjust them at all, so I would say they are much better than the other ones.
In the past few days, I have been inspired to cross stitch again after years of not doing so. The pattern I found on Amazon is nice. My hoops were missing when it arrived, so I went looking for them. My search brought only two results, a really small one and a really large one. In the end, I returned to Amazon to order In the past, when I was doing needlework more often, I used bamboo/wooden hoops rather than any other kind of hoops. It was just easier to order these because I already know them. Hoops of this kind are regular ones. For decades, the same kind has been produced. Despite its low price, this wood is sturdy and has a grain that provides a bit of grip. Metal hardware is attached with flat rivets to the outer hoop, which is loosenable and tightenable with a screw. The diameters of the inner hoop are measured as follows by measuring the outer diameter The five 1/8", six 1/2", seven 6/8", nine", and ten 1/4" are all appropriate. The one I took a photo of (the 6 1/2" one) was holding my cross stitch fabric. I'm sure they will fluctuate a bit from set to set due to the fact that although they are mass produced, they are mostly If you are tidy, they come in a box so you can keep them together. Although I was impressed with the set, I did have a complaint about it. With the smallest one, the outer hoop has too large of a gap, which means there's only 1/4" of the screw to work with. Although you would need to find a longer screw to use it with a thick fabric, it will work on.
Doing what needs to be done is what it does. Working with bamboo is much more enjoyable for me than with plastic, so I sell more bamboo. The sizes range from small to large. There haven't been too many issues with fastening them (or really any). It may be a bit of a challenge to turn the knob or you may experience some discomfort from tightening. With a pair of pliers, I tighten the remaining part of the nuts once I've gone as far as I can. My mind is made up. They will probably last me for awhile, but if I had to buy them again, I would most likely do so!.
I found these to be very cheap looking, and did not hold fabric taut - the fabric.
As I embroider, I sometimes end up with fabrics that are a bit not taught in some places but loose, in others. It has been my experience that rings do not behave this way. Additionally, I find the screw hard to unscrew and does not fit right on the mechanism. You're better off out there, no doubt about that.
The purpose of these was to have greater variety in the embroidery of my hands. The amount of hatred I have for them is beyond description. First of all, you can't tighten them as tight as you need to. Despite its taunting ability, it will not hold the fabric taut. In certain places, the fabric pulls away from the body, and it sags. It seems I can never tighten the screws enough, regardless of how many times I try. Also, they have already started to fall apart. An interesting thing is that the circle splinters at the corner where it should meet. The threads of my suit get caught in the splinters of the wooden frame. It irritates me, and it looks horrible. They don't have the awful blue plastic on the metal, which is a good thing. A fair trade off may not be worth it. Don't buy these embroidery hoops if you are allergic! You can save yourself some money and hassle by getting better quality instead!.
They are excellent for the price, and I would certainly recommend them. As a result, I created a collage of a dream catcher.
These are the tension wires that I purchased in order to use my cross-stitches You can stitch up The one I bought at a local store was significantly heavier, and this one has a lighter weight. There is no rough feeling to them.
