The actual name for these colourful spool knitters? .....we have discovered that they are made in Germany where they are called Strickliesel (singular) or Stricklieseln (plural).
Here's a collection of gorgeous photographs of pastel colored threads. It is amazing to me how artful these photographers have made something so seemingly simple and common. They amaze me. These photographs are the property of the photographers linked to below. Enjoy!

"Therefore myself is that one only thing
I hold to use or waste, to keep or give;
My sole possession every day I live,
And still mine own despite Time's winnowing."

It wasn't until I had converted this shot to mono that I noticed that the "threads" stood out as much as they do.

This was one I didn’t use for MM. It took me longer to use the tool and get it thru the eye of the needle than it did to actually take the shot!! Port old eyes
I hope you like this little thread catcher, partner! If not that is totally fine. I want you to love what you receive, so please be honest. :) You won't hurt my feelings at all.
I have recently obtained a new angle clip of what I now believe to be the "1.5" version Enterprise eleven foot model, the one filmed just after the conclusion of the first pilot but before notice of rejection (so late January 1965).
A long and very interesting discussion thread surrounded a shot from what I believe is the same photo session, see this clip and the informative comments below it:

I also guess this is filmed close to or at the same time as the dated shot below, but perhaps it was a bit later:

There are wires visible on the port side of the saucer and on the port nacelle suspending the model. I do not believe it is lit in this shot though the details on the saucer are pretty washed out and there may be a test light there.
This is a restoration from a very high contrast 35mm original clip. Colors may not be perfect, as it was badly faded to red. However, the angle seemed unique so I wanted to add it to the other views of the big model in its suspended state before the lights were added.
This is a stinging wasp but it is very timid. The milkweed is a yellow variety which I purchased from a seed company.
Thread-waisted wasps are parasitic. They paralyze and capture spiders and various larva and carry them to their dens. Eggs are laid on the paralyzed prey and when they hatch they consume the prey. Most of these wasps are solitary unlike honey bees which live in large colonies.
The NC Coastal Land Trust hosted its Flytrap Frolic in the Stanley Rehdar Carnivorous Plant garden. This is the first time I have seen the Thread Leaf Sundew (Drosera filiformis Raf.) in the garden. This species is supposed to be expatriated from New Hanover County (plants.usda.gov/core/profile?symbol=DRFI), so it was a special treat to see it. Perhaps it was planted from a cultivar? Regardless, its a beautiful plant.
These appear to be listed as "Significantly Rare" in North Carolina (www.ncwildflower.org/plant_galleries/carnivorous).

I knitted the white silk into an I-cord. I then dyed the silk using acid dyes. I unknitted the silk and crocheted into a continuous necklace.
