Canvas #6: Getting Picky About Perle


Listen Later

As anyone who has stitched with perle cotton knows, there are some nuances to using the versatile thread, particularly the tendency to twist and untwist. In Canvas #6, we spend a few minutes talking about those nuances. We hope this helps less-experienced stitchers and, as always, there might be a tip or forgotten thing for veterans. Post your thoughts in the comments section.–Beth, Cindy, and Gary
