The Luca-S Stranded Cotton in color 68 is a versatile embroidery thread crafted from 100% extra-long staple cotton. Each 10g skein provides 8 meters of thread composed of six individual strands, allowing you to separate them to achieve the desired thickness for your project. This specific shade corresponds to DMC 3608 and Anchor 86, making it easy to match with existing patterns or palettes. Because of its composition and structure, this thread is well-suited for a variety of needlework techniques including cross stitch, freestyle embroidery, canvas work, and counted thread embroidery. The long staple fibers ensure a smooth finish and durability, which helps you maintain consistent tension and clarity in your stitches across different fabric types.
