COTON PERLE ECHEVETTE 15M 1 ECHEVETTE

DMC Perlé Cotton n°5 Light White B5200 is an embroidery thread with a twisted and shiny structure, designed to bring a subtle luminosity to your creations. This 15 m skein in 100% cotton offers ideal finesse and regularity for delicate stitches and precision work on canvas or embroidery canvas.

A non-divisible thread characterizes Coton Perlé: unlike Mouliné Spécial, it is worked in a single thickness. Made in France , this thread combines manufacturing quality and respect for textile traditions. Its regular diameter and its pearly appearance make it particularly appreciated for refined finishes and light effects on patterns.

The Blanc Lumière B5200 color is a white slightly tinted with a very soft ivory shade, visible on the skein. This subtle shade creates interesting contrasts with pure whites or provides a seamless transition to cream and beige hues.

• Work with 40 to 50 cm needles to prevent the thread from fraying while embroidering.
• Mount the skein on a rotating winder to maintain regular tension and preserve the shine of the thread.
• Perlé Cotton No. 5 is ideal for loop stitches, chains and outlines to structure a pattern.
• Use this ivory white as a light shading on floral motifs embroidered with darker Mouliné Special.
• Combine it with pearl gray or light beige Coton Perlés to create delicate chiaroscuro gradients.

This thread pairs naturally with DMC Coton Perlés in warmer shades — light browns, powder pinks, soft grays — for harmonious projects. On Aida canvas or linen embroidery canvas, he draws soft, shiny lines that structure the pattern without being overwhelming.
