BABYLO 147D/5 1 PELOTE 50G

DMC Babylo 147D n°5 thistle blue 482 crochet thread is a must-have for your fine crochet and embroidery projects. This 100% cotton thread offers exceptional fineness and stitch regularity, ideal for making openwork lace, delicate doilies or light, breathable clothing. Made in France, it guarantees consistent quality and recognized textile know-how.

Composition and technical characteristics: This 50 g yarn in 100% combed cotton has a No. 5 numbering, suitable for fine hooks (No. 1 to 1.5) for a regular and tight finish. Thistle blue shade 482 offers a subtle, slightly grayed depth that is suitable for both modern and classic designs. Made in France , it reflects DMC know-how in high quality yarns.

• Work with needles of 40 to 50 cm to avoid lint and maintain the regularity of the tight stitches.
• For very openwork lace, let the thread relax a little after each row: it will return to its shape when blocked.
• Thistle blue goes perfectly with neutral shades (ecru, off-white) or pearl grays for harmonious compositions.
• Use this thread to border pieces of fine linen: the result is impeccable in chain stitch.
• A single thread is enough for delicate crochet patterns; double it for a denser, more structured texture.

Combine this thread with fine Bohin or Prym brand hooks, and natural linen canvases for openwork borders that enhance embroidery projects. The shades of the DMC Babylo range combine easily to create subtle gradients or colorful patterns without overwhelming the work.
