For some drying tests I'd like to obtain cotton and silk embroidery yarns that are not fast to wet cleaning. I've occasionally heard reports of certain colors of certain brands of embroidery floss will bleed color in washing. I'd be interested in any information or experiences list members may have about this.
Thanks very much.
