Thin metallic Braid used for needlework; primarily cross stitch and embroidery, plus blending in needlepoint. Ideal for cross stitch on 16-count or 18-count Aida. Some stitchers also like using it on 14-count Aida for a light metallic look. A #22 or #24 Tapestry needle pairs well. Use in any stitch in an embroidery or fiber art design. In needlepoint, use it to string beads (especially translucent beads so the metallic sheen shows through), to couch thicker threads, or to create light details on top of stitches.
Cord, a single-strand thread with a metallic covering tightly wrapped over a core (gimp).
Hand and machine washable; tumble dry on low. Do not iron directly onto the metallic; use a press cloth. Note: some colors like red may bleed, test a swatch before washing your entire project.
