COTON PERLE 1 PEL 10G (M)

A deep and generous purple, Cassis carries the dark hues of the bay. This rich nuance is essential in works of a certain scale: floral embroidery, chain stitches on structured fabrics, or reinforcement of contours. It dialogues harmoniously with neutrals (linen, light gray) or combines with lighter complements to create contrast.

The Coton Perlé DMC n°5 is a twisted thread 100% cotton and non-divisible , recognizable by its silky feel and its satiny appearance obtained thanks to double mercerization. Packaged in a ball of 10 g , or approximately 45 meters of thread, it brings volume and relief to each stitch placed, a real asset for giving character and texture to works. Its tight twist makes it durable, easy to work with and pleasant to pull, even over long embroidery or crochet sessions.
