Visually it's very striking how bad that media is that you sowed this in. I have no idea what any of this stuff is really but I can definitely see that it's terrible.
Also, I can see how the DMC floss has a little bit more sheen to it. I bet that it's fibers are smoother and better woven and that makes it have less friction and give it a little bit more sheen and that's why it's easier to work with.
Very good write up! TIL!
Maybe, that's what they called it in the episode 200 (IIRC) of Stargate, so that's what I call it.
They may be opposites.
I don't know. Lol.
