Summarized by AI
This is a high quality product with good colour saturation. It looks amazing when used in bargello work, I have used other brands but always come back to this product, I highly recommend Anchor wools.
I'm waiting for my second order of this tapestry wool! It is a good quality product with a terrific range of colours.
I used the tapestry wool to knit a couple of budgies, which needed small quantities in several different precise budgerigar colours. It knitted really smoothly and the budgies look pretty good! Also, I noticed that the tapestry wool is washable, so I'll be using it in future for multi-coloured intarsia work.
Tapestry wool from DMC is consistent in quality, and has been in use in my projects for years. Unfortunately, local suppliers are fading away, and I now rely on sources like Lovecrafts.com for quality products and reliable service.
Anchor tapestry wool his the best wool to use on a tapestry canvass. It has 1st class quality. I would buy Anchor wool every time.
This was an Anchor thread with an old reference only. The updated one found and ordered. The wool perfectly matches the original one used when I started the item several years ago. Many thanks.
I bought the embroidery wool to complete a tapestry which I started many years ago. The wide range of colours meant that I was able to choose a colour that blended perfectly.
I always use Anchor, it feels more comfortable in my hand than other brands, covers well and good choice of colours.
This tapestry yarn is one of the best on the market - I needed to buy more to finish a canvas started several years ago! I was worried that I might not be able to match the colours.
First of all the colors are quite vivid and they are easy to work with. Not too much snagging when I use it on my needle point. Feels so soft I like to sometimes rub some of the yarn on my face. Ok, that ‘s odd but what I am saying is that the yarn is soft and has a smooth feel to it. Lovecrafts always has the color I want so I am willing to have it shipped from England to Arizona. They are nice people to work with. Hey, give them some business.
