COTON PERLE RETORS D'ALSACE 25G N°12 1 ECH

Cotton Perlé DMC Retors d'Alsace n°12, color Galets 4145, is an exceptional embroidery thread made in France. This pearl cotton is distinguished by its characteristic shiny appearance and its particular twist which gives it a unique texture in embroidery. Ideal for delicate cross-stitch works, white embroidery or canvas, this thread combines finesse and shine.

Composition and technical characteristics : 100% cotton, 25 g spool, French manufacturing. No. 12 offers an average thickness suitable for embroidery canvases of 14 to 18 threads per centimeter. The Galets 4145 color presents a natural, soft and timeless shade, perfect for country-style creations or for creating subtle gradients in combination with other neutral shades.

• Work with needles of 50 to 60 cm to preserve the regularity of your stitches and prevent the thread from being mistreated.
• Use a fine embroidery needle (No. 7 or 8) so as not to spread the cotton fibers and keep the shine of the thread intact.
• No. 12 is easily separated if you want to work with fewer strands: one or two sets for delicate details.
• Perfect for creating monochrome white embroidery on natural linen or white cotton: the shine of the pearl creates relief without the need for multiple colors.
• Combine this Galets 4145 with pearl grays or beiges for natural compositions, or with off-white for a soft contrast.

In traditional embroidery as well as in canvas, this Retors d'Alsace thread pairs beautifully with linen canvases or thick cotton fabrics. Its French origin and recognized quality make it a reliable choice for all projects requiring an impeccable and durable finish.
