COTON PERLE ECHEVETTE 25M 1 ECHEVETTE (S)

Want to add relief and shine to your embroidery? The Coton Perlé DMC embroidery thread in its ecru color is an essential for traditional embroidery. Unlike the classic mouliné divisible into six strands, this thread is worked as is, in a single thick and satiny strand, which gives a characteristic volume to the stitches made. Ecru, a soft and timeless shade, lends itself particularly well to cross-stitching on natural linen for a refined tone-on-tone effect, as well as to monograms, hardanger embroidery and trousseau work.

This thread is available in size n°8 , an intermediate size between n°5, thicker, and n°12, the finest in the DMC pearl cotton range. It is 100% cotton and comes in the form of a skein of 25 meters , a practical format for starting a project without wasting material. Its entirely cotton composition gives it good hold on the needle and appreciable resistance over time, while maintaining a soft and silky touch that is very pleasant to work with.

• Use an embroidery needle suitable for size no. 8 for smooth passage through the canvas
• Combine several skeins of ecru and white for subtle tone-on-tone effects
• Ideal for enhancing household linen, embroidered towels or pillowcases
• Perfect for monograms, openwork borders and embroidered details
• Also suitable for hardanger embroidery and traditional lace work

To accompany this embroidery thread, consider a quality linen or Aida canvas, an embroidery hoop or drum to keep your work taut, as well as DMC embroidery needles adapted to the size of the thread. A pair of fine embroidery scissors will ideally complete your kit for clean and precise finishes on all your creative projects.
