I've been seeing an interesting trend this winter--needlepoint teachers and designers are starting to post little essays online to help folks understand various topics, especially attaching beads to needlepoint canvas. But before I give you links to those bead essays, here are Kathy Holman's thread thoughts, starting with her essays on novelty threads which tells you what size and type of thread will work on what size NP canvas using perle cotton and floss as size standards and tent stitches as the baseline for what will work in other types of stitches.
