A new thread has been "born" at Kreinik's manufacturing facility!

Introducing Kreinik Canvas #24 Braid, a metallic thread designed for needlepointers to use on 13- and 14-mesh canvas.

"We've had so many requests for a metallic braid that fits 13-mesh canvas, which is now almost as popular as 18-count canvas for needlepointers," said Kreinik Creative Director Dena Lenham. "We introduced this new braid size at the Needle Arts trade show in Indianapolis on June 10, 2006," she added.

The new braid is thicker than Kreinik's Medium #16 Braid, but thinner than Heavy #32 Braid, so it's also perfect for crochet, plastic canvas, and cross stitching on very large counts of fabric. Initially, it will be available in the most popular metallic colors: 001 Silver, 002 Gold, 003 Red, 005 Black, 008 Green, 024 Fuchsia, 026 Amethyst, 027 Orange, 032 Pearl, 060 Midnight, 3506 Blue Samba, 202HL Aztec Gold Hi Lustre. It should hit needlework stores in July. For more information, contact Kreinik at 1-800-537-2166 or email info@kreinik.com.
