This specific color is equivalent to DMC 5 and Anchor 231, making it easy to integrate into existing patterns. Because of its composition and structure, this thread is well-suited for cross stitch on various fabric counts, as well as freestyle embroidery and canvas work. Its lightweight 10g form is designed for precision in counted thread embroidery, providing a consistent finish for those who enjoy detailed needlework.
