The Luca-S Stranded Cotton in shade 343 is a versatile embroidery thread designed for a variety of needlework projects. Made from 100% extra-long staple cotton, this thread provides a smooth finish and durability, making it a reliable choice for cross stitch, freestyle embroidery, canvas work, and counted thread techniques. Each 8-meter skein consists of 6 individual strands that you can easily separate depending on the thickness required for your specific design. This particular color is equivalent to DMC 3822 and Anchor 295, allowing you to easily match it with existing patterns or combine it with other brands. Because of its high-quality composition, it glides easily through the fabric, which helps you maintain a steady pace and reduces hand fatigue during long crafting sessions.
