417F MOULINE VARIATION 1ECH 8M LF

Separate two or three strands for fine details, four for solid areas: this DMC Mouliné Variation embroidery thread reveals all its richness when explored in gradient. The Azalea 4211 color plays on a palette of pinks and mauves which respond to each other thread by thread, creating natural shading without manipulation of additional colors.

Each skein of 8 meters in 100% cotton offers a very good grip. The thread separates easily into six strands and tolerates repeated passes through the fabric well without excessive linting. Made in France , this thread combines manufacturing tradition and contemporary palette that embroiderers seek for their cross stitch, backstitch or classic embroidery projects.

• Use two strands to embroider on cheesecloth or fine canvas, three for a 14-point canvas, four for solid colors on 11-point canvas or more.
• On a work with a gradual gradient, let the gradient of the thread create the shadow effect without changing the color: a significant time saving.
• Test this yarn on needles 24 to 26 depending on the number of strands: it glides smoothly and fills the stitches well.
• For a luminous result, combine it with pearl grays or off-whites: it gains contrast and depth.
• Store unused skeins away from direct light to preserve the liveliness of the pink-purple gradient.

Combine with shades of soft green or bluish gray for floral patterns. The Mouliné Variation creates subtle gradations that give depth to delicate compositions, without overloading supplies.
