Did you ever find that chart? I was looking at getting some decent thread for my quiver, but have had a rough time finding what size thread I should use with the no.8 pricking iron.

Pricking irons are the the tools of choice in the UK saddlery trade, I have a chart in my workshop somewhere with thread sizes in ration to number of stitches and type of work, if I can find it I will post it on here to help.

Hello,

To be honest I completely forgot, apologies. I have written it in my diary this time and will dig it out tomorrow when back in my workshop.

Oh no worries, I had just now wondered about it. :)

It doesn't come out as a table on here very well but for 8 stitches to the inch you'll need a 3/18 thread if you email me on unicornleather@excite.com I'll attach the chart to the email and send it to you, Oz
