The Luca-S Stranded Cotton in shade 465 is a versatile embroidery thread made from 100% extra-long staple cotton. Each 8-meter skein weighs 10 grams and consists of 6 individual plies, allowing you to separate the strands to achieve the exact thickness needed for your project. This specific color is comparable to DMC 3033 and Anchor 390, making it easy to integrate into existing patterns. Because of its composition, this thread is well-suited for a variety of needlework, including cross stitch, freestyle embroidery, and counted thread work. Whether you are working on a detailed canvas piece or a creative freehand design, the long-staple fibers provide a smooth finish and consistent tension throughout your stitching.
