Clear Warning Signs

This morning I stumbled across this warning that Eterna Silk is discontinued. Of course Trish is in South Africa, so that may just mean that Eterna is no longer being sold in her country.  She does link to a great conversion chart to DMC which will help anyone who needs to switch to another brand.

I tried to find the Eterna website, which seems to have disappeared.  The parent company, Yodamo, Inc., does still have a site up but it comes with a warning about a fraudulent eBay seller.  If you click on the catalogue link, the site seems to be out of date. None of the links to the catalogue or anything else work.  It looks like they've gone out of business to me.

I also found this on a Canadian site.

Thread Express does seem to have some Eterna left but in limited quantities.  However, I have heard complaints about slow shipments from Thread Express.  Order at your own risk.

On the positive side, I did notice mention of Silk Mill silk floss and tracked down their website.  I've never heard of them, so I'd love to hear from someone who has used their silk floss.  Add a comment below or email me at chillyhollow at hot mail dot com if the Comments section won't work for you.  I'd also like to hear from you if you know anything about what has happened to Eterna Silk.

I loved Eterna Silk's colors and their stranded filament silk.  I am sorry to see them go.
