I have seen people talk about hand dyed multicolored threads.
Sharon talked about Threadworx treads but I didn't' find any online store selling them.
I found a store selling Caron threads but the site is very difficult to navigate.South America
I' d like an American shop. Do you know any?

They are hand dyed from a mother/daughter team, Pam and Katie in Australia, and come in Perle 8, 12 + stranded cotton, plus felt and trim in different width. I just love them. The colours are stunning and the quality one of the best I ever came across. Believe me, once you've tried them, you're hooked on their colours. They are completely different.
Contact them if they sell in the US, otherwise, with threads it really isn't a problem to order overseas, it's so lightweight, the postage is no issue.

I've just finished a small Christmas table decoration with them, with Hugs'n Kisses, a very deep red with dark red brown in it as well, and with gold in combination for the needleweaving, it looks soooo rich. Can't show it here, as this is for publication in the Christmas edition of Embroidery and Cross Stitch, but it was fun to stitch... and on white sparkly hand dyed linen.
