Fine #8 Braid Glow-In-The-Dark Thread
Slightly thicker than #4 Braid, it is about the weight of two strands of cotton embroidery floss. It is used straight off the reel (not plied or separated). Very popular for cross stitch (14-count Aida), needlepoint (18-mesh) and embroidery.
TOP TIPS: The glow-in-the-dark colors are slightly stiff, so we suggest:
- Use shorter lengths (like 18 inches not 24 inches)
- Go up a needle size—for instance, if you usually use a #24 Tapestry Needle, use a larger #22 Tapestry Needle, as this will help the thread pass more easily through your fabric.
- Stroke it gently with a slightly damp cosmetic sponge, as this will help the thread relax
