Density is the number of stitches covering a given area. Large
letters, large fill areas and textured fabrics, generally need
higher densities. The reverse can be true as well.
There are two measuring systems used in calculating density:
Imperial and Metric. The Imperial system measures density in
stitches per inch (spi). 65spi means 65 stitches in a 1 inch
(linear) area. The Metric system measures density in
embroidery points (pt). Points refers to the distance between
each thread.
