Zweigart 32 Count Lugana Murano Evenweave Fabric 3984/503 – Sky Blue (Light Blue)

Zweigart Murano 3984/503 is a 32-count evenweave fabric in Sky Blue — also listed as Light Blue — a soft, airy pastel blue. Part of Zweigart's Lugana family, Murano has a soft drape and subtle sheen that makes it a popular choice for counted cross stitch, hardanger, drawn thread work, and surface embroidery. At 32 count, each cross stitch worked over two threads produces the same stitch size as 16-count Aida — fine enough for detailed designs yet comfortable to stitch without magnification for most stitchers.

Please Note

Fabric is dyed in batches from natural fibers, so slight shade differences between dye lots can occur — even within the same color name. If your project needs several pieces in the same shade, please order them together so they can be cut from a single bolt. Keep in mind that on-screen color may also differ from the actual fabric depending on your monitor and lighting. Fabric edges are unfinished — not serged or hemmed.

Brand new. Cut from the bolt.

Project Notes

Murano feels smoother under the needle than pure cotton evenweaves and holds its shape well in a hoop or scroll frame. Sky Blue is a natural background for nautical and coastal designs, baby boy announcements, winter snowscene samplers, and any project where you want the fabric to suggest open sky or calm water. It also works well for angel, bird, and aviation motifs where the blue ground eliminates the need to stitch a sky background. If you plan to cross stitch over two threads, a size 26 or 28 tapestry needle is ideal for this count. To prevent fraying while you work, finish the unfinished edges with a simple zigzag stitch, masking tape, or a liquid fray sealant before you begin.
