DMC Light Effects Thread glimmers with a metallic shimmer. It's made from 100% polyester fibers and will give your project a gorgeous twinkle. The thread consists of six size 25 easily separated strands. Use it on its own or combine it with a strand of cotton floss for a touch of sparkle.

For the best stitching experience with DMC Light Effects Thread, work with a shorter length of thread (try 12 inches). The will help keep the fibers fresh and prevent fraying. If the thread becomes twisted while stitching, drop the needle and let it unwind itself.

Once you found the tips to sew with this thread, it turns out wonderful! http://www.limeleaves.biz/2020/11/using-dmc-metallic-for-hand-embroidery.html

I use this to make friendship bracelets and I LOVE IT. To prevent it from fraying I tie a small knot in the end of the string and it works perfectly!

I will also agree that this is the most difficult thread to work with. It’s best to work with very short strands. I actually dread when I need to use it and curse at it often. That being said, I love the way it shimmers and gives off just the right amount sparkle and always makes the recipients touch that part of the project.

Although the colors are brilliant and the glitter the Light Effects thread gives to a project is wonderful, it is EXTREMELY difficult to work with. It does not hold its twist, tangles and breaks often, and is hard to keep in the needle. That being said, the effects it gives a project are marvelous, if you can get it to go into your project!
