GREETING FROM California,

I need gold thread for a counted cross stitch (metallic) I cant find it on the chart. Is there something out there I dont know about? I know nothing.

    Hi Lisa,

    Check out Kreinik they make blending filament, braiding and another one I can't remember what it's called. The blending filament, in my opinion, is difficult to work with so in most cases I'll use the braid, which I think the smallest is a size 4 braid. DMC also makes a metallic thread called Diamant as well as a thread called Light Effects. If you can't find it locally you can purchase it here : http://www.123stitch.com/

    Hope that helps. Go to top
