Big light peachy-pink spool is near full. Only one has label, the lavender purple solid: J & P Coats Knit-Cro-Sheen.
Red / Orange: 6 total. Unused Aunt Lydia's Victory Red Size 10, 350 yards. Large orange spool looks near full, small orange spool only has a little on it. Very little thread remains on the 2 spools of thicker red, small red spool has label Clark's Big Ball size 30.
Metallics / Neutrals: 6 total. Three unused: Coats & Clarks Speed-Cro-Sheen White 100 yards, J & P Coats Metallic Knit-Cro-Sheen White with Gold 100 yards, J & P Coats Best 6 Cord Big Ball White size 30, 350 yards. Near full large spool variegated red green white. Partial spool with with metallic silver (mostly full). Partial spool beige with gold, little remains.
Greens: 7 total. All partial, solid medium-dark green J&P Coats Knit-Cro-Sheen looks near full, as does green and gold metallic Knit-Cro-Sheen. Two other metallics include green with metallic red, white with metallic green thread. Variegated greens, pale mint green, and medium green spools retain less than half.
Yellows: 8 total. Unused Southmaid variegated Lemon Peel 550 yards (size not stated). 3 spools variegated golds and yellows Knit-Cro-Sheen, 2 have labels, one has little remaining. 2 partial light yellow and white variegated spools with little remaining, two larger solid yellow spools mostly full.
These crochet thread spools are from 2 different Idaho and Wyoming estates. Most are not full and none are new (a few are unused however). They may have picked up household odors and minor dust from storage. They are currently in a smoke-free environment but I do not know if the previous environments were smoke free. Price is per color lot, but if you buy all six lots (provided none have yet been sold) I'll discount the total price just over 10%, $48 plus shipping for all. Shipping will be adjusted to actual if purchasing more than one lot.
