's Gravenmoer is a form of hand-made torchon which has half stitch worked with diagonal and vertical threads instead of the usual diagonal and horizontals. I've not done any myself but I believe it's achieved by working diagonal rows of halfstich instead of going back and forth - rather like working the first half of a spider.

Sulky Blendables is a range of space dyed machine embroidery cotton 12 wt or 30 wt, same as their "All Purpose" cottons in solid colours. More info at

Please forgive my ignorance, but what is 's Gravenmoer and what are Sulky blendables? They both sound fascinating!
