993A/5 PETRA 4 PELOTES 100G GROSSEUR 5

A crystalline white that captures light. This raw and pure color is suitable for airy creations: crochet lace, light shawls, delicate doilies. Its natural clarity highlights the worked patterns, without visual fatigue. Combine it with pastel shades for a soft harmony, or with taupe gray for more sophistication.

DMC Petra yarn is a long-staple mercerized cotton , combed then flame gassed before being mercerized twice: this step gives it its luster and its resistance to fraying. Its supple texture and soft touch facilitate the progression of the work, whether with crochet or needles. The range exists in three sizes (n°3, n°5, n°8) , which allows you to choose the thickness adapted to each project, from thin placemats to denser pieces. Presented in a 100 g ball slipped into a protective pouch, it can be kept clean between two work sessions. The yarn can be machine washed at 60°C, which is well suited to works intended for daily use.

• Placemats, coasters and fine crochet lace borders
• Light summer clothing in knit or crochet
• Layette and small baby accessories
• Amigurumis and decorative objects thanks to its good hold
• Tea towels and household linen resistant to frequent washing

The Blanc Lumière color combines with the other shades in the Petra range to create gradients or stripes, and can be easily combined with fine steel hooks or circular needles adapted to the chosen size. It also completes an embroidery project using DMC pearl cotton to harmonize the finishes.
