I mean , what is the diffrence in fly tying thread and the stuff in my wife's box?
I've got Dunvilles and its not very strong so what if I needed a bit of white and had none .
Can I use a bit of the wife's basket.

No laws against using anything you like mate. Whether it's silk straight out of silkworms ****,or swag pilfered from yer wifes sewing box... if you can handle it,run it round a hook and it fits the bill then it'll do. May not be perfect or turn out to be very versatile,but if it's means to an end,then use it.

Hi Reservoirdog.
I must agree I have found the same with Danvilles thread great colours but I've had this break more than any other?
I also asked a similar question to yourself about threads.

The most significant difference is ownership - eleventh commandment.
