FIL A DENTELLES 1PEL 5G

A very pale gray, almost ash, which soothes without extinguishing. On fine lace patterns, it creates a soft and sophisticated contrast, perfect for highlighting details without overwhelming the work. Pair with off-whites or ivories for airy and elegant creations.

This DMC lace thread is 100% long fiber cotton , combed then gassed to eliminate fibrils and obtain a perfectly smooth surface to the touch. It is then double mercerized , a process which gives it a silky shine and reinforces its resistance to wear during work. Its 6-strand structure gives it good tension hold, a valuable asset for fine and regular works. Sold in 5 g balls, or approximately 90 meters, it is colorfast and washable at 95°C , which guarantees the color holds even after several machine washes.

• Work bobbin lace with a thread that slides without fraying
• Create fine and regular tatting works
• Crochet borders for handkerchiefs, placemats and coasters with a No. 0.75 hook
• Embroider hardanger or delicate counted stitches on fine canvas
• Combine several balls of bamboo shoot green to vary the shades within the same work

This bamboo shoot green color goes well with a fine steel hook type 0.75, bobbins and a lacemaker's tile, a fine embroidery needle or a tambour for hardanger embroidery. It also completes a collection of Coton Perlé or Mouliné DMC to combine techniques and materials on the same project.
