CEBELIA 167/20 1 PEL 50 G

For lovers of fine lace and meticulous crochet, this DMC Cébélia thread is a companion of choice. Its bright white color makes it the perfect ally for works where a bright white is sought, more intense than a classic white, particularly highlighted on a slightly ecru support or when a marked contrast is sought. Placemats, household linen borders, lace collars or small crochet decorations: this yarn lends itself to all delicate desires.

This thread is made of 100% cotton and benefits from double mercerization , a process which gives it shine, resistance and regularity of gauge over its entire length. It comes in a 50 g ball, in size no. 20, an intermediate thickness particularly appreciated for crocheting lace, finishing household linens or small accessories requiring precision and hold. The yarn is made in France , a guarantee of textile know-how recognized by crocheters for generations.

Here are some ideas for using this Cébélia thread:

• Make placemats or table centerpieces in fancy stitches, the shine of the thread will enhance the openwork patterns.
• Use it to edge handkerchiefs, pillowcases or sheets with a refined lace border.
• Try your hand at tatting or bobbin lace, this fine and resistant thread is particularly suitable for it.
• Make small appliqués or isolated patterns (flowers, leaves) to then sew onto your textile creations.
• Combine several shades of Cébélia for gradient works or contrasting finishes.

Remember to complete your ball with a fine hook suitable for size no. 20, as well as a wool needle to neatly insert the threads at the end of the work. To fix your lace creations, a light textile primer can also be useful to maintain the hold of the openwork patterns over time.
