The Luca-S Stranded Cotton in color 309 is a versatile embroidery floss made from 100% extra-long staple cotton. Each 8-meter skein consists of six individual plies, allowing you to separate the strands to achieve the exact thickness needed for your project. Because the fibers are long-staple, the thread is smooth and durable, making it a reliable choice for cross stitch on various fabric counts, canvas work, and freestyle embroidery. These threads are designed to be washable and fade resistant, ensuring your handiwork maintains its vibrancy over time. Weighing 10 grams per unit, this mouline thread is suitable for anyone practicing counted thread techniques who needs a consistent, high-quality material that behaves predictably under the needle.
