RBG - Ultra Suede - 0038

yards per card. Use short lengths! This fiber will tear easily if you are not careful. Use a larger than normal needle and come straight up and straight down, being careful not to drag the Ultra Suede across the canvas. When you start a length, bury it in stitching already done and then change your needle to the other end. Do not pull the whole length through the threads on the back of the canvas. You can also use an away knot, without the knot. Come up from the bottom and then change your needle to the other side of the length of fiber. Stitch over it later in your work. It is best to keep the Ultra Suede at room temperature and away from moisture. Make sure that you lay Ultra Suede as it tends to twist. Laying it on the back of the canvas will also help to keep the front looking good. Ultra Suede can be tent stitched on 18 count canvas with great difficulty; however, long stitches are best. When you purchase Ultra Suede, make sure you get enough to finish your project. Many colors are fashion colors that are available only for a limited time. If you want a yarn that is much stronger, try our Super Suede. It comes in fewer colors, but it will not pull apart as you stitch. (12-14 count canvas, long stitches on 14-18 count)
