415/5 COTON PERLE VARIATION 1 ECH. 25M

Canyon embodies a powdery pink with terracotta notes, with that mineral softness that characterizes rock formations at sunset. A timeless shade that works equally well for delicate cross stitching and raised floral embroidery. Combine with neutral shades like linen beige or gray blues to let the work breathe; or on the contrary with a more intense terracotta for a warm finish.

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 shine of the Canyon 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.
