Hot Wire Renamed Wired Braid

I just realized that Kreinik has renamed their Hot Wire.  It's now Wired Braid.

Think size 16 braid with a wire inside.  This stuff is great couched as edging for flowers, lettering, bows, anything where you need some dimension and stiffness.  

It comes in eighteen colors.

You can substitute it for DMC's memory thread, although Kreinik of course is metallic, not covered in cotton floss.  My personal opinion is that the Wired Braid is a tiny bit fatter than memory thread, which might be a consideration.
