Love the thin #4 Daruma carded thread. However, this is my first experience with the med weight #6 Daruma carded thread and find it separates into separate threads when you are sewing into your project.
Looks terrible when you can see a single thread sneaking out of the stitch. Lord forbid if you need to remove a stitch. You loose the entire length of thread.
So sorry to hear that the Daruma 20/6 thread did not meet your expectations Gloria. The difference between the 20/4 and the 20/6 is that there are 2 extra plies in the 20/6, but they should all be twisted together tightly to produce a thicker strand without unraveling. I am sorry that the thread is not behaving as it should.
