The Luca-S Stranded Cotton in shade 51 is a versatile embroidery thread crafted from 100% pure Egyptian cotton. Each skein provides 8 meters of six-strand floss, allowing you to separate the individual threads to achieve the exact thickness needed for your project. This material is designed for a variety of needlework, including cross-stitch, needlepoint, and free-style embroidery. Because the thread is color-fast and washable at temperatures up to 90°C, your finished pieces will maintain their vibrancy even after cleaning. It is also suitable for dry cleaning, making it a reliable choice for detailed textile art. For those who use other brands, this specific hue corresponds to DMC 3824 and Anchor 8.
