Madeira Thread - Lana No.12
Madeira Lana is available on 200m reels and offers a matt contrast to the usual shiny machine embroidery threads. Lana is a lovely textured yarn looking and feeling like a very fine wool.
As Madeira Lana is a thicker thread (with a weight of No.12) we recommend you use a large eyed needle, preferably the Schmetz Topstitch in size 90 or 100. You will find you will require fewer stitches to cover your work when using
Madeira Lana compared to a standard weight embroidery thread such as Madeira Classic 40.
You can give a design a unique Lana ‘furry feel’ by gently brushing over the embroidered area with a small brush or piece of Velcro.
The colours shown have been faithfully reproduced from a thread wrapped shade card, but it will appear slightly different to the actual thread colour on screen. This is because every computer monitor can be set to different levels of colour, brightness and contrast. If exact colour matching is a priority you will need a thread wrapped shade Card.
