003HL Red High Lustre – Kreinik Fine #8 Braid

Please note: Many Kreinik fibres come on spools that are too bulky to ship at Oversized rates and must be shipped as a parcel. To ease the cost of shipping for our customers, we offer winding the thread onto a flat card for a fee of $2.50 per spool for up to 4 spools. We will contact you after you place your order regarding this option.

Kreinik Fine #8 Braid is a high quality metallic thread used in cross stitch, needlepoint, crochet, knitting, weaving, scrap booking, card making, fly tying and more.

Colour numbers with an "F" are glow-in-the-dark and will glow when exposed to light; they also look great under black lights. Colour numbers with "HL" are Hi Lustre, "V" have a vintage-matte finish, "C" are braided cords (stiffer & resemble real metals), and "L" are holographic.

Fibre Content: 100% polyester (holographic), 65% poly/35% rayon (regular), 62% poly/38% nylon (hi lustre), 64% poly/36% nylon (vintage), 80% poly/20% nylon (glow in the dark)

Stitching Tips: In cross stitch, it is about the weight of two strands of cotton embroidery floss. Use it straight from the spool, do not try to separate. No need to combine strands - if you need a thicker thread, just go up to the next Kreinik Braid size (#12 Braid).
