Milan Cards - Grapefruit 2584

I was a bit nervous about the color matching from the online image, but this grapefruit shade is exactly what I needed for my 18 mesh project. The 10-yard length was enough for the small floral motif I'm stitching.

The silk-wool blend feels incredibly smooth as it glides through 18 mesh, and the grapefruit color is exactly the warm pop I wanted for my project. Ten yards was just enough for a detailed piece, and the non-strandable twist kept my stitches tidy without annoying splitting.

The blend feels lovely to work with—the silk gives it a subtle sheen while the wool keeps it grippy on 18 mesh, and 10 yards was just enough for a small accent project. Colors shifted slightly from my screen but the grapefruit hue is still bright and true.
