417F MOULINE VARIATION 1ECH 8M LF

For nuanced shading and subtle gradients, the Mouliné Variation DMC combines several shades in the same thread. Buttercup 4073 offers a palette of warm yellows, from golden ochres to bright lemons, ideal for flowers, fruits or summer skies. Each strand captures a color variation that naturally enriches your embroidery without extra effort.

100% cotton thread made in France , composed of six separable strands. The 8m skein amply covers a medium sized cross stitch or stem stitch pattern. The fineness of each strand allows precise adjustments depending on the density of your canvas: work with two or three strands for delicate details, four to six for dense surfaces. DMC ensures even dyeing and stable colorability when washed.

• Separate one or two strands to embroider the fine veins of petals or the contours of a fruit.
• Use three to four solid strands to fill surfaces without fear of color demarcations — the natural variation of the thread erases the joints.
• Combine Buttercup 4073 with neutrals like beige 712 or pearl gray 415 to structure floral arrangements.
• Test the variation on a sample of your canvas before starting your work, in order to adapt the number of strands to your desired effect.
• Embroider in both directions to exploit the chromatic richness: the shades will change slightly depending on the direction of the stitch.

Combine this Mouliné Variation with linen or 14-point cheesecloth to maximize the rendering of the gradients. Yellow hues combine with lightly grayed greens or oranges to create authentic botanical compositions. An essential for those who love natural effects and refuse monochrome areas.
