Subject: [h-cost] China Silk Floss.

Hello the list,
Just wanted to share a happy thing wich just happened to me.
I had ordered a lot of silk floss directly from China. More than 2 kg.
Then when i wanted to try them out, i noticed that the threads was not 
stranded into smaller threads like Eternas silk floss. It was a solid
thread 
full of tiny tiny threads. The floss is cut out into lenghts of 84 cm
each, 
and i tryed to split them, but it was impossible.
Now i got help from H-Needlework, they advised me to cut the thread
shorter. 
Now i have succeded to split one thread into 16 smaller strands without 
troubble.
Think about the possibilities with this, i can mix collours if i need 
another shade i dont have.And make different thicknesses of strands.
A little more time consuming, but truely worth the effort.

Bjarne
