That's a question I wanted to ask as well, how to print it?

As stated above, scroll down to the bottom, download then print from there. I had to put in "shrink to fit" so it got all the info.

if i'm reading the charts correctly, YLI Soft Touch is the thinnest of the cotton threads listed.
seems to be generally less expensive than aurifil. (not "dissing" aurifil. i love the stuff.)

the lowest price i have found so far for 1,000 yard spools of the YLI is here:

for 6,000 yard spool/cone, this is the lowest i've found so far:

i swore i wasn't going to buy any more thread until i'd used up the huge collection i have already.
i shoulda knowed better 'en that! lol
