COTON PERLE RETORS D'ALSACE 25G N°8 1 ECH

A pure, luminous white that captures light with its natural radiance. This timeless color is available in embroidery on white or ivory linen for unparalleled delicacy, in cross stitch on light Aida canvas, or in white embroidery on muslin. It enhances lace work, discreet monograms and lingerie finishes. Combined with pearl grays or warm shades like ecru, white reveals all its elegance.

Retors d'Alsace is a 100% cotton thread composed of two twisted strands, renowned for its satin shine and resistance. Made from long-staple Egyptian cotton and double mercerized, it does not twist or form knots during work, making needlework much easier. Presented in a large 25 g skein, this generous packaging is particularly suitable for work that requires a lot of material, such as Hardanger embroidery.

How to use

• Embroider in Hardanger, Reticello or Antique stitch for a traditional and textured look
• Create monograms and openwork embroidery thanks to the finesse and shine of the thread
• Cut needles of approximately 40 cm to preserve the fiber and prevent it from fraying
• Work with stem stitch or cross stitch for a marked relief effect
• Combine several sizes of White on the same work to play on the volumes

This thread blends naturally with linen, Aida or Zweigart fabrics used in traditional embroidery, as well as with fine-point needles and embroidery hoops to keep the fabric taut during work.
