Floss Labels

Custom sets of floss labels are available for each of our patterns. Each set contains exactly the labels you’ll need for that pattern: one label for each solid color used alone or in blends, and one label for each blended symbol. The label includes (in large print) the symbol for the color or blend (some solid colors which are used only in blends and not alone do not have a symbol) and the floss number or numbers.

The labels measure 1" x 5/8" (2.54 cm x 1.59 cm). Just peel and stick. They can be folded over the top of a floss bobbin (they will cover the hole, so if you use a floss winder, fill the bobbin before attaching the label). They can also be attached to floss bags or other storage systems (some trimming may be required).

You can include a set of floss labels when you order a pattern simply by clicking the "Include floss labels" checkbox on the pattern page before you add the pattern to your shopping cart.

Floss labels are also available for patterns you already own, provided that you purchased the pattern after October 25, 2004. If you want floss labels for a pattern older than that (or if you aren’t sure of the purchase date) please contact us before ordering the labels so that we can verify that the symbols will be correct. (The floss colors have not changed, but the symbols used to represent some colors may have.) Order floss labels separate from patterns.
