993A/8 PETRA 1 PELOTE 100G GROSSEUR 8

To create airy and delicate works, DMC Petra 993A n°8 crochet thread in very light plum color 53608 is your ally. This 100 g ball of 100% cotton offers a light and regular texture, ideal for amigurumis, lace, summer clothes or fine accessories. Made in France, this yarn combines tradition and artisanal quality.

A 100% pure cotton worked with finesse by DMC from its French workshops. No. 8 corresponds to a medium size, perfect for a hook of approximately 1.5 to 2 mm. The Very Light Plum shade 53608 is a very delicate mauve pink, almost pastel, which is suitable for discreet projects as well as more ambitious gradient creations. With 100 g of material, you have a nice quantity of yarn to experiment with or finalize a moderately sized project.

• Work with short needles (30 to 35 cm) to prevent the cotton from fraying as you pass through the stitches.
• Test n°8 on a 1.75 to 2 mm hook: the cotton relaxes slightly once the work is in place.
• Prefer textured stitches — double crochets, half double crochets — which reveal the structure of the cotton and play on the light.
• This delicate shade calls for monochrome or pastel combinations: complete with an ivory white or light gray to amplify the subtlety.
• Perfect for crocheting everyday accessories or small, timeless creations, without colorful overload.

Combine this thread with a cotton linen canvas for finishes, or complete it with other colors from the Petra range to play on pastel shades. An investment in quality raw materials, signed by essential French know-how in haberdashery.
