It’s the thread that stops people in their tracks. Spectra runs on all standard embroidery machines with a slight reduction in speed and tension, and the 100% polyester base keeps it strong and colourfast. The eight-spool gift box is a genuinely exciting present for any embroiderer who wants to push their work into new territory. Please note: holographic threads produce different visual effects depending on lighting conditions, viewing angle, and stitch density. The effect shown in product images is representative — results will vary beautifully in practice.
