I received this from a friend who enjoys embroidery, but I'm not a fan of the unique, scratchy feel of silk thread, so I'm selling it. There are 15 colors: red, yellow, green, blue, white, and black. I think it can be used for embroidery as well as for braiding. *I will try to keep the threads from tangling as much as possible, but I will ship them as they were received (all colors together in a zip-lock bag). Please understand. #embroidery #silkthread
