First Impression Hitena Metallic

Just received my first samples of Hitena metallic rod guide wrapping thread. The most brilliant metallic thread I have ever seen and the thread is very fine. I can see some of our expert weavers doing some fantastic art work with this thread.


Thanks again, Hitena.
