The all-metal, EasyGrip Pliers has a smooth jaw, so the thread is gripped tightly and securely as you clamp the handles together. Unlike a typical "hemostat" which has a toothed or jagged jaw (preventing a firm grip), the thread grabber is more like tweezers, only better!  You will be able to grab a hold of that little thread and the Thread-O-Stat won't let go!  It's also quite helpful for removing paper from the back of your paper-piecing projects, or turning things right side out, whatever you need to grab in a tight spot - an all around handy tool to have in your sewing room!

Please note the thread-o-stats will have unique variations of color due to the nature of the paint.
