COTON PERLE 1 PEL 10G (XS)

Blanc Lumière offers a dazzling whiteness, enhanced by the characteristic luster of pearl cotton. This crystalline shade is suitable for openwork embroidery, delicate initials, cross-stitching on white canvas or contrasting tones. Pair with pastel shades for a delicate effect, or saturated colors for maximum impact.

Coton Perlé DMC n°12 is a 100% cotton thread , twisted and non-divisible: it is worked as is, without separating strands, unlike mouliné. Its double mercerization gives it a satin and shiny appearance which highlights each stitch, while its characteristic twist brings volume and three-dimensional relief to the embroidery. Packaged in a 10 g ball for approximately 120 meters of thread, it corresponds to the finest size in the DMC pearl cotton range, finer than No. 5 and No. 8, which allows precise stitching on fine canvas. Made in France, this thread is appreciated for its resistance and its ease of work: it glides through the fabric without fraying.

• Embroider with cross stitch on fine canvas for clean and detailed patterns
• Create openings, openwork borders and entredeux in traditional embroidery
• Compose delicate monograms on household linen or keychain
• Work with hardanger embroidery in addition to thicker sizes
• Use in fine crochet for lace and light finishes

Blanc Lumière thread goes well with an Aida canvas or an embroidery linen, a size 24 or 26 embroidery needle adapted to its fineness, a drum or embroidery hoop to keep the fabric taut, and other sizes of DMC Perlé Cotton to play on the relief contrasts within the same work.
