Each of these 6 individual strands is twisted together twice. The convenient packaging of the skein allows for easy access to the desired length of thread without having to unwind the entire skein. Thanks to its flexible thread division, Anchor Sticktwist is the most commonly used embroidery thread with a wide range of applications in nearly all embroidery techniques.

It is ideally suited for cross-stitch on various fabric densities, as well as for colorful embroidery, canvas work, and other counted embroideries. This thread achieves its special luster, intense light reflection, and unique softness due to the long Egyptian cotton fibers and a double mercerization process. You can find Anchor Sticktwist in an 8-meter skein format in beautiful solid colors (washable at 95 degrees) as well as vibrant multicolor options (washable at 60 degrees).
