Hi
I’m looking for Mylar sheets. I’ve recently got my Brother 950 Electronit machine out, as I want to make some baby blankets for our local NICU. I can’t find the Mylar sheets I had and I’m having problems finding anywhere that sells them. Can anyone point me in the direction of someone who sells them?
Thanks

Hi Karrie
Metropolitan have these listed on their website. They are £11.80 for five. Sometimes they are advertised on eBay, so it may be worth checking the listings.
Hope you manage to find some.
Regards, Sue.

Hi there
Last year I came back to machine knitting on my Brother 950i and, of course, many of my Mylar sheet patterns were old fashioned and designs that I would not knit any more. I searched for Mylar sheets to buy and had problems finding them at decent prices so I decided to 'clean off' my old sheets. Eventually, I discovered the 'stain remover' for oil and tar did the trick beautifully. Now I've cleaned most of them off and have put new designs on them. Some of the old designs were from 24 years ago including reindeer and snowflakes and I kept them as they're now so popular in the High Street shops. I've just finished a gorgeous little sweater for my one year old great grandson Ben, so try to save some money and get the stain remover from the £1 shop. It's worth every penny and good luck.
Best wishes
Barbara

Thanks Barbara
The problem was that I couldn't find my Mylar sheets, not that they were full.

Hi Barbara
What kind of pen do you use on your Mylar sheets?
Thank you, Linda
