Plastic Canvas Mesh Size Chart

Compare common plastic canvas mesh sizes with this easy-to-use reference chart. Learn the differences between 5-count, 7-count, 10-count, 14-count, and other mesh counts to choose the right plastic canvas for your next craft project.

Plastic canvas is available in several mesh counts, including 5-count, 7-count, 8-count, 10-count, and 14-count. The mesh count refers to the number of holes per inch and helps determine the size and detail of the finished project. Lower mesh counts have larger openings and are typically used with heavier yarns, while higher mesh counts have smaller openings that work well with finer threads. Use this chart to compare common plastic canvas mesh sizes and determine which mesh is best suited for your project and stitching material.
