The contemporary embroiderer enjoys an array of threads that stitches of yore would envy. Choosing the colors and fibers of threads is one of the most exciting tasks that you will undertake as a stitches. The look of the piece, as well as the experience of stitching it, will depend on the choices you make.
One of the pleasures of stitching is the tactile experience, so consider what kind of fiber you like to handle. Crewel wool or silky rayon, cotton floss or metallic threads all provide a different experience.

Different threads offer varying degrees of difficulty. Depending on the type of thread and the particular stitches you choose, you may need to use a laying tool to obtain the results you desire.

Many specialty threads are too heavy to use for many embroidery stitches, but may be used as couched threads in embroidery.

The many fibers available include the following:

Wool and Wool Blends. Historically, wool is the essential thread for crewel work. These lightweight wool threads are suitable for this embroidery.


Specialty and Synthetic Fibers. Many exciting options are available to the contemporary stitcher as fiber manufacturers develop new fibers for this ever growing field.

Metallics. Metallic Pearl Cotton and Metallic Floss from DMC are metallic and viscose blends that resemble their cotton cousins in weight and have relatively "soft hands" for metallic threads.

Rayon. Marlitt, a four-stranded floss from Anchor, and six-stranded DMC rayon floss are smooth, silky threads with a radiant shine.
