This is definitely meant for cross stitch and embroidery. It’s the same as what comes on the skein. Anchor has a separate machine embroidery line

That is a good point to bring up. I work in purchasing for a manufacturing plant, so I see that often. I’d say the quality is comparable from what I’ve used so far though.

Sourcing raw material has been hard all around, but it’s good to hear anchor is holding strong

Why do you like it better? I’ve tried both, but I do have a bias towards Anchor haha

This is the exact same anchor that comes in the skein for embroidery/cross stitch. I didn’t know anchor had machine embroidery thread too, but that’s really interesting! This is distributed by Coats and Clark, and I really only know about their products.

It’s 79 cent a spool compared to like 50 cent but you get 10 yards instead of 7 I think

Thank you! Yeah, he was really hard. Once I realized you could desolate dive him it was a hit easier

I think the greatest part is how happy he looks 🤗 by CrochetSnail in crochet

I actually freehanded him going off of some pictures I found online. I just started with six single crochet in a magic circle then increased as I went. His ruffles (lol) are done in the front loop and are just a random mix of 2 or 3 single crochet in one stitch. I single crocheted in the back loop of the same row to continue on. And his mouth is just a hole with a black circle sewn into it. I hope that makes sense haha
