Tips for working with Aurifloss
- Aurifil’s 6-strand, divisible 100% Cotton floss is wound on a gorgeous wooden spool, perfect for easy travel and prevention of pesky tangles! It is available in all 270 of our Cotton colors and boasts 18 yards per spool.
- You’ll find Aurifloss excellent for cross stitch, embroidery, tatting, needle point, and decorative accents on quilts, bags and garments. Choose just the right number of strands of Aurifloss for your specific project.
- When using multiple strands of Aurifloss, begin by separating your strands. Pull each strand out and smooth it before adding the next strand. This allows the thread to look silky smooth.
- Stitch with the nap of the floss by knotting the last end cut and threading the needle with the opposite end.
- When using Aurifloss on aida cloth a Crewel/Embroidery needle works well. Working with fabric? A Milliner or Straw needle will pull through the layers with ease.
- Thread the needle with a short length of thread, approximately 12-15”, or roughly the length of your forearm.
