Use these bobbins to wind it onto with this bobbin-ator (make sure you label either with a sharpie or these stickers ) and store them in this container. Of all the ways I’ve seen stashes stored, this makes the most sense to me 🤷🏻♀️. It’s a great mindless activity you can handle while binge watching tv ☺️
I use bobbins and "Santa" gave me a package of these labels for them so they look really spiffy https://www.amazon.com/DMC-Floss-Number-Stickers-630-Stickers/dp/B0055732Y4
I haven't got this altogether on an Amazon list, some of it's from Michael's, but here you go:
Washable Embroidery pen for marking grids.
Needles
Hoopla hoop. It's plastic (wood and metal stain projects), it grips well (with the overhang), and it's my preferred hoop for working on projects. There are other plastic hoops, but not all have the one piece with an overhang, and it's the overhang that keeps the hoop pieces together tightly so you're not constantly adjusting back together. I do use wooden hoops for mounting final projects, though.
DMC 6 strand floss. I always use DMC floss, it's silkier than cheap dollar store floss, meaning it doesn't knot as much. PRISM is cheaper, yes, but it's crap compared to DMC, imho.
Loops & Threads 14 count Aida cloth is a good place to start. This brand is more starchy than DMC brand, I find, which can make it a bit more challenging to get on the hoop, but it also stays put easier and needs less adjustment during stitching. Totally a personal preference. Aida comes in several basic colours and styles, like gold/silver dusted, pale blue, red, green, black, white, oatmeal, antique, etc. Some people hand-dye aida and sell it on Etsy for a decent price, and then you can get a much wider variety of colours if you want something unique for a project.
You'll need a nice bobbin box to organize your floss.
You'll need some floss bobbins, to organize, maybe some floss number stickers (or you could write with a sharpie), and if you're looking to see what colours of floss are available, get a colour card.
Like others have posted, try getting a kit or two first, as they give great instructions, all the supplies needed, and will get you going. Or you could just assemble the things I listed, buy a pattern from Etsy, and dive in head first!
Good luck!
I got tired of writing them on and my handwriting is terrible, so I bought these DMC sticker labels at Joann's when they were only $2 or something on sale. The numbers are a little small though. My mom wrote all hers on a fine tip sharpie like u/yoshidrivesacar .
Follow up: looks like it’s on Amazon too!
