WHAT IS THREAD GLOSS?thread gloss is a specially formulated wax and oil blend that coats your thread to prevent tangles, fraying, and brittleness. Think of it as a deep conditioner for your thread and embroidery floss.WHY DO I NEED IT?Have you ever had to cut your thread short in the middle of your groove because there was a gnarly knot? Using thread gloss helps prevent tangles and knots, taking away all of the frustration of handwork.WHAT CRAFTS DO I WANT TO USE IT FOR?Anything that you're dealing with cotton thread-- hand embroidery, hand quilting, cross-stitch, English paper piecing, applique, repairing clothes, whatever. Simply drag your thread across the gloss pot after threading your needle, applying slight pressure on the thread with your thumb, while pulling with your other hand.IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE I SHOULD KNOW?-You can use thread gloss on any thread except for silk and nylon. For best results, use cotton and cotton-polyester blends.- Store all thread gloss in a cool, dry place.- For external use only. Please do not eat.- Made with all natural, unfiltered beeswax and there maybe a small amount of hive gunk at the very bottom of the gloss pot. This won't affect the quality of the gloss. The color of the gloss tends to vary from batch to batch, and between containers, while the consistency and effectiveness remains the same.
