Questions & Answers
The cards are the only thing that connects them.
Yes, all of the holes are the same size; I'm not sure what the exact diameter is, but it's a good size, and it's designed to allow several lengths of floss to be folded in half and tied through. It's very nice, and I keep some on hand for projects all the time.
3 cards in one pack
They're made of a glossy coated coated paperboard that's fairly stiff. You'll need an old-fashioned typewriter to complete this task. To avoid smearing, use a pencil or a ballpoint pen from school. The gloss will be indented by pencils, but the writing can be erased and reused. You can actually use these in a three-ring binder if you punch the opposite side of the card properly. I adore these, despite the fact that they aren't as sturdy as the old cards from the 1970s and 1980s.

For years, I've used LoRan's large floss organizing cards and folders, and they're still in excellent condition. In a matter of seconds, I can get my hands on the exact floss I require. These project cards allow me to combine all of the flosses I'll need for a project onto a single card, which I can then store in my project bag. If you haven't used the cards before, cut through the bottom of a skein of floss (or as much as you need), poke the top loop of the floss through a hole in the card, gather the cut ends and pull them through the top loop and pull them snug. The floss can then be braided or left unbraided. As needed, remove the individual strains from the top loop. Make sure the floss number is written on the appropriate line on the card, and you're done.
This is a very useful and well-designed item. designed with holes for your embroidery yarn or floss, as well as a good place to add the color's symbol, letter, or number. br>br>I'm not convinced it's much better than a hole-punched index card. br>br>And there aren't nearly enough holes for each blend in larger or more elaborate projects, especially those that blend floss colors in a single stitch! br>br>While the magnet for holding the needle is a cute idea, I have to make sure needles are far more secure than that because I live with cats. If you have small children, it's the same. br>br>If a DIY approach isn't in the cards for some reason, this is still a viable option!.
I used to keep my cross stitch thread organized in these for years. I keep these cards in a large three-ring binder. I was overjoyed to re-discover these! These binders are made with a three-ring hole punch. Prepare the thread by writing the DMC number on the provided line and threading it through the provided hole. My original set included a large index card, which I use to keep track of and quickly locate the thread I'm looking for. I find these to be far more cost-effective and convenient to use than multiple plastic boxes.
For years, I've used these for cross stitch, and I've always punched a second set of holes on the opposite edge. They're fantastic now that they've been modified. br>br>I'm not sure why these aren't punched on both sides - That makes them a lot more convenient to work with!.
I've used and reused these cards for years because I like how convenient they are. Instead of writing directly on the card, I place a return address label in each slot ahead of time, which makes it easier to completely erase the current project and move on to the next!.
I removed a star because I thought it was a sturdy one that could be reused; perhaps I misread it, but there are three cards per pack; I'll punch holes along the other side.
These are the smaller skein openings, but they still work well. I was looking for the medium ones, but these will do just fine.
The product is fine in and of itself, but it does not function for me. My floss gets tangled up, and you have to untangle it all to get the thread you require. I switched to bobbins after a week.
