Cross Stitch DMC Floss Storage and Organisation System PDF (36 Cards)

A bobbin-free DMC floss storage system for all 500+ shades. Wind once, braid loosely, pull one strand at a time without tangles or rewinding.

This system gets rid of the two biggest floss storage headaches: re-winding bobbins every time you need a strand, and untangling thread chaos. Wind your skein onto the card, cut one end, thread the strands through the holes, and braid them loosely. When you need floss, pull a single strand. No knots, no mess, no rewinding.

Print at home, trim, punch holes (a standard hole punch works), and load your floss. Takes one afternoon to set up, lasts for years.

What's Included
