'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.

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