Anchor Stranded Cotton

Anchor Stranded Cotton is globally the most popular stranded embroidery thread and it is extremely versatile across all types of embroidery. It is perfect for cross stitch across a wide range of fabric counts. Supplied on 8 metre skeins it has a brilliant sheen, softness and is light reflective.

It is a superior 6 strand extra-long staple 100% Egyptian cotton embroidery thread, where each strand can be further divided into 2 single plies. Anchor Stranded Cotton’s pull free skeins allow the perfect length to be “removed” from the skein without disrupting the skein itself. Anchor Stranded Cotton can also be used in freestyle embroidery, canvas work and other forms of counted thread embroidery. Stranded Cotton thread comes in 8 m skeins and provides a brilliant lustre, unique softness and an intense light reflection due to the extra-long staple length of the Egyptian Giza fibres and double mercerisation.
