Milan Card - Lava 2514

The 50/50 silk-wool blend gives this thread a subtle sheen that really makes the stitching pop on 18 mesh. It handled smoothly without any fraying, and the 10-yard length was just enough for a small project. The Lava color is richer in person than it appeared on screen.

I was looking for a thread that gives good coverage without splitting, and this one on 18 mesh worked perfectly. The 50/50 silk-wool blend has a subtle sheen that makes the stitching stand out nicely.

The color payoff on 13 mesh is exactly what I hoped for, and the silk adds just enough sheen without being glossy. It's a little pricey for 10 yards, but the blend makes stitching feel smooth and substantial.
