The Luca-S Stranded Cotton in shade 431 is a versatile embroidery thread crafted from 100% extra-long staple cotton. Each 10g skein provides 8 meters of thread composed of 6 individual strands, allowing you to separate them to achieve the exact thickness needed for your project. This material is well-suited for a variety of needlework, including cross stitch on different fabric counts, freestyle embroidery, and canvas work. Because it is made from long-staple fibers, it offers a smooth finish that works reliably for counted thread embroidery, making it a practical choice for those seeking a consistent result in their hand-stitched art.
