For those who are expecting scissors with dragons, dinosaurs or demons on them, sorry! I know it's nearly Halloween, but "monster scissors" actually refers to the Little Monster Scissors by Sajou. They are small embroidery scissors with extra large holes, perfect for those with arthritic hands! I first heard about them from a friend with arthritis who just loves them.

If you are a fan of Bohin scissors, they appear to have something similar. If you have swollen, tender joints, these might be just the thing for you.

Thanks, SL!
Happy Stitching! (And here are scary scissors with a matching magnet for those who were crushed when I didn't have dragon scissors for them.)
