415/5 COTON PERLE VARIATION 1 ECH. 25M

A nuanced gray, subtle and enveloping, which evokes morning mists on a peaceful landscape. This soft shade is suitable for delicate works: fine embroidery, discreet cross stitches, touch-ups on linen or cotton. It blends harmoniously with off-whites for more lightness, or with pale blues for an atmospheric and poetic composition.

A pearl thread with subtle gradients

DMC Variations Perlé Cotton is a single-strand, non-divisible thread, obtained by the characteristic twist of classic perlé cotton, which gives it this satin feel and this slight pearl relief once embroidered. Its particularity lies in its gradient aspect : the color evolves gently every few stitches, offering plays of light and shadow without ever having to change thread during work. Sold in 25 m skeins and in size no. 5 , it is 100% cotton and made in France, with good washing resistance which allows the brilliance of the Brumes color to be retained over time.

• Cross stitch and traditional embroidery on Aida or linen canvas
• Decorative stitches in Hardanger to highlight an openwork pattern
• Canvas and needlepoint for lively flat surfaces
• Monograms, initials and lettering that gain relief
• Smocking, appliqué and decorative finishes on textile works

This thread pairs naturally with plain DMC Perlé Cotton of the same size to create controlled contrasts, or with a suitable embroidery canvas, a tambour and ball-point needles for optimal working comfort. It also completes a skein storage box, very useful when you collect several colors from the range.
