993A/5 PETRA 4 PELOTES 100G GROSSEUR 5

For airy creations in pure cotton, DMC Petra 993A n°5 thread is a natural choice. This size 5 crochet thread offers a beautiful stitch regularity and works easily with medium-sized hooks. The Aquamarine color 53814 captures the soft tones of tropical waters: a calm bluish green that enhances both tight knits and openwork stitches.

Made in France , this 100 g thread in 100% cotton guarantees French quality manufacturing, with no processing residue. Pure cotton breathes naturally, ideal for summer pieces, amigurumi, shawls or lightweight blankets. This material washes without fear and becomes more supple with each wash, which pleases designers attached to the durability of their works.

• Work with a No. 4 or No. 5 hook to obtain regular tension and defined stitches.
• The Aquamarine color 53814 blends elegantly with off-white, pearl gray and navy blue for subtle marine gradients.
• Separate the work into short sessions (1 to 2 hours) to prevent the cotton from tiring and linting.
• Lightly moisten the yarn before crocheting if the ambient air is very dry: this prevents accidental cuts.
• Pre-wash your work at 30°C before blocking it; French cotton continues to stabilize after the first wash.

Combine this yarn with ergonomic crochet accessories and stitch markers to make rows easier to follow. 100% DMC Petra cotton can also be combined with other threads of the same size to create contrasting textures: think of shiny or pearl threads from complementary ranges to liven up your stitches.
