8 Embroidery Cotton
Usually a four-fold yarn used for embroidery. Two-and three-fold yarns are used, but not so much as the four-fold. They are all slack twist, made from cotton, silk, rayon and linen. If cotton, they are made from super cotton and mercerised. In silk from one-to twenty-fold yarns are made, and all are loosely twisted. They are also known as crewel yarns.
