RETORS MAT A BRODER 1 ECH 10M

Hemp displays its natural gray-beige hue, that of raw fibers and ecru canvas. This timeless shade adapts to all styles: it serves as a neutral base for tapestry gradients, it combines finely with ochres and greiges for an authentic ensemble, or it offers a refined contrast with more saturated colors. Its warm, unprimed appearance is suitable for cross-stitch creations as well as visible darnings where the thread should blend naturally.

DMC Mat Twisted Cotton is a thread 100% long fiber cotton , which gives it good hold over time and a nice regularity of stitch. Made up of 5 inseparable strands , it can be worked as is, without having to separate the threads, which simplifies the preparation of the work. Its matte, supple and soft-to-the-touch appearance comes from combing and buckling which prevent the thread from linting, for a clean result even after numerous passes through the canvas. Each skein measures 10 m, a length designed to limit connections on small canvas surfaces.

• Work in needles of 40 cm maximum to preserve the fiber and prevent it from fraying
• Embroider hole by hole, without pulling the thread, for a regular finish
• Ideal for tapestry and half-stitch or cast-stitch canvas
• Also suitable for cross stitch, hardanger, weaving and braiding
• Suitable for visible repairs on household linens or clothing

The Hemp color goes easily with a medium mesh canvas, an embroidery or tapestry frame, and ball point needles suitable for half point. For projects combining several materials, it can also be coordinated with Coton Perlé or Mouliné DMC threads in the same color palette.
