Soft and silky, this mercerised cotton yarn is a dream to use. It slides through fabric like butter, either by hand or machine. It would also make an interesting 'knitting in' yarn combined with a heavier thread, or use it for lace or crochet. It is equivalent to a Perle 8
Hand-dyed by me this is...more a vibrant colourway. Vermillion, Tomato and Tangerine mingle with Gold, Apricot and Silver Taupe, possibly some other colours too. It is quite unique. Part of our 'Serendipity' range, in other words, the result of a very happy accident, the length of the hank is approximately 240m, and the weight is 25g before dyeing. It has been fully fixed and rinsed many times It is equivalent in thickness to a Perle 8.
If you want to use it in the sewing machine I suggest a Topstitch 100 needle, I can supply those too (convo me if you need some) and will also give more detailed instructions of how to use it. Don't worry - no lengthy winding onto machine bobbins is involved!
"This is a perfect programming book and very easy to understand. I only wish I'd had it 3 years ago. It's great for beginners not only to PHP but to programming in general. If you are a PHP fan like I am, this is a must."
"At the moment, this is the only book that covers mod_perl 2 in Apache 2, so it's a critical part of the Apache/Perl section of your bookshelf even though the docs at perl.apache.org/docs/2.0 are pretty good.
Of course, it's from O'Reilly which means the color coding will fit right in with your existing books."
