MOULINE GOLD CONCEPT 1 ECHEV DE 8M

The soft beige of color 822 invites subtlety. This soft, almost ivory shade soothes with its timelessness: it slips into delicate work, tight stitches on white linen, openwork embroidery. It goes naturally with warm grays, taupe or cream for soft compositions, or contrasts with deep blues or lime greens for more character.

Mouliné Spécial DMC is a 100% long fiber cotton embroidery thread, mercerized twice for a shiny and silky finish that highlights the stitches. Made up of 6 easily separable strands, it allows you to adjust the thickness of the yarn according to the technique and support chosen, a single skein thus covering many uses. Sold in 8 m skeins, it offers a practical length for most projects without waste. Its dyes are selected for their excellent resistance to light and washing ( colorfast ), a real guarantee of durability for works intended to be kept for a long time. This thread is certified OEKO-TEX Standard 100 , guaranteeing the absence of harmful substances, and it is made in France , a traceability benchmark appreciated by embroiderers.

Our tips for use

• Separate the strands one by one before reassembling the needle with the desired number, generally 2 or 3 strands for cross stitch
• Work with short needles to preserve the shine of the thread and limit tangling
• Use this thread on Aida canvas, linen or any other support for traditional embroidery and canvas
• Reserve a single strand for fine details and several strands for areas to be covered to give relief to the work
• Take advantage of its resistance to make Brazilian bracelets that will keep their shine after washing

This Cotonnade thread goes naturally with an embroidery needle adapted to the size of the thread, an Aida or linen canvas, an embroidery hoop to keep the fabric taut, and fine embroidery scissors to cut as closely as possible. A thread organizer also makes it easier to store 8 m skeins as projects and colors accumulate.
