TFW I'm finally using the 2-ply linen thread on an historically accurate piece of reed rather than modern cardboard¹ spool, and it's when sewing a pair of modern slippers.

¹ I don't think I've ever bought linen thread on plastic spools

in reply to Elena ``of Valhalla'' • •not that I ever do any kind of sewing where a cardboard spool wouldn't be realistically possible (even if possibly the markings could be too modern, e.g. if there is a barcode)
or at least, not that I'm currently planning to do :D
