CORDONNET 151/80 1 PELOTE 20G

Do you dream of creating an impeccable lace braid, an airy border for an embroidered tablecloth or an openwork collar worthy of the most beautiful old pieces? This DMC cord, in size no. 80, is designed for the most detailed work: fine crochet, tatting, bobbin lace or decorative details on household linen. Its finesse allows for clean and regular stitches, even on the most complex designs.

Made of 100% cotton , this thread is mercerized twice to offer a sustained shine and a smooth hand that glides smoothly through the work. Its construction of several twisted strands gives it good hold while remaining thin enough for exceptional work. The ball weighs 20 g and comes in the color B5200, a bright white with barely a bluish tint, different from classic white and particularly bright once the work is finished, as you can see in the photo of the immaculate ball.

• Use a very fine crochet needle, suitable for size no. 80, for a clean and regular result.
• Combine this cord with a fine embroidery needle to create thread stitching on linen or white cotton.
• Lightly moisten the thread to make it easier to slide when working with bobbin lace.
• Store the ball away from light to preserve the shine of white B5200 over time.
• Test it for finishing handkerchiefs, doilies or Irish lace collars.

To go further in your creations, combine this cord with small diameter steel crochet needles, an embroidery drum to stabilize your work, or a set of fine embroidery needles for everyday use. A dedicated dispenser or storage box for your fine threads will help you keep cording and embroidery threads neatly organized in your sewing box, ready for your next lace or art crochet project.
