Kreinik pearl blending filament

From what I seem to remember, all Kreinik threads are made in Parkersburg. I never managed to make it up there to see for myself, unfortunately. Too bad, especially given that I'm likely to never move back to my native West Virginia.

I wonder if they have an outlet? Becky A

Dead right Lucille - but you do realise you`ve now started WWIII on here?

*$%(*&%(^ stuff is SPIT!!! I know -- YUCK, etc. but for MOI it works!! I the length I want to use, put the end in my mouth and pull it through. I've tried and tried to be sanitary and use regular old water but it just doesn't work the same (maybe it's the **acid** in my saliva from my sharp tongue -- who knows)LOLOL! Actually, I have no idea why it works but it does. Since I wash EVERYTHING after it is stitched, I wash all of the nasty germs, etc. out of the fiber. OH -- once the length of Kreinik dries and is straight (sort of) and a bit stiff, I run it through the Thread Heaven. CiaoMeow >^;;^<

My hometown is only an hour away, and I'm about 2 hours away now. Maybe I'll see sometime. Where are you from in WV?

Ha, no turn off....I do that anyway with my threads:-)

I'm a native of Charleston. Lived for four years in Huntington while I was in school. Somehow, it came to be that I married a Norwegian...and so I now live in Norway. Nice place. Reminds me somewhat of a blend of West Virginia, Ohio, and Michigan.

Holy crap is it foggy today... Becky

According to their website, yes:

"Today our manufacturing facility is located in Parkersburg, West Virginia, and the design, customer service and educational departments are in Baltimore, Maryland."

I'm from Clarksburg and have spent the last 5+ years in Morgantown in school. I'd say Norway is a little far away!
