Suffolk's Sewing Tube contains 78 yards of waxed 100% Nylon thread for Pointe Shoes and dyed pale pink to also match the satin used on Suffolk Pointe Shoes, two sewing needles, and a self-contained stainless cutter. The stainless cutter is built into a top that will never rust or dull for smooth cutting of strong, waxed thread time after time. Our strong container will not be crushed in a dance bag.
