I used to thread crochet until I got tendonitis in my right shoulder after making a very large doily with sewing thread. Since then every time I do much crocheting at all that tendonitis comes back.

Know how it feels when you can't find your favorite - did find some links for Knit Cro Sheen - here's one:

Thanks Flybriet but I was mistaken about the name. That's not the thread I was thinking of. It came in a skein and was loftier then regular cotton thread but not as thick as the Sugar N Spice cotton. It had a silky feel. I'll think of the name of it

Is it Grace or MicroSpun?

I crochet better than I quilt. I give my doilies as gifts. I can't seem to find #30 size cotton thread anywhere tho. Can anyone help me find some?

Hobby Lobby sells Aunt Lydia's size 30 cotton thread.

I've seen it at some WalMarts too.

TY Miss Bellaboo,,I appreciate your response,,,and I was just told we have a Hobby Lobby in Hot Springs,,ty again. And BTW, that is a beautiful doily which I of course have to try making,,lol

No Miss Kathi, I've checked Annie's Attic, Herrschernerrs, Clothilde and a few others that USED to carry #30, I can find #10, but can no longer find #20 or #30,,I love crocheting doilies and chair doilies, and most of my patterns call for size #10 thank goodness,,,but I love doing filet crochet and the one I'm actually doing in size #10 calls for #30!,,lol but my Christian sisters at church like it just the way it is,,once I get a scanner/printer I'll put some pics of projects on here,,,ty again

There are many different places on the web that you can look for threads and yarn. My favorite is herschneers.com.

Good luck in finding your thread.
