If you buy from Wonderfil via their site the Sue Spargo perles are all available in 3, 5 or 8 which is great for adding texture or working on lower count canvas.<br /><br />Alison<br /><br />Godalming U.K. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4686273156594002956.post-77071721908598659122020-01-04T16:23:50.498-05:002020-01-04T16:23:50.498-05:00I know Eleganza comes in a #5 pearl, too.
