Care and handling of knives scissors and shears
Like knives, good scissors and shears are easily damaged. The fine cutting edge dulls from use on paper cardboard flowers wet cloth or heavy string. Inexpensive utility shears should be kept on hand for such uses. Scissors should not be used on heavy fabric because this dulls and may spring them. Dropping may spring or break blades. Points should not be used to pry. Broken or bent points result.
Sewing Tips for Double Thread Ends
When sewing with a double thread, form a separate knot at the end of each thread. This prevents twisting or knotting and keeps the stitch line neat.
