TheColour No. 221is a deep orange-red, which combines with denim, mustard, cream, pine green and charcoal grey.

Use cases

• On a canvas apron, highlight the pockets with double stitching: brick red creates a simple graphic pattern.
• To embroider initials in stem stitch, trace them first with a fine pencil and keep a short thread so that it doesn't fray.
• Avoid ironing directly on the line at high temperatures: test on a scrap before the final piece.

Pair it with denim, linen, or heavyweight cotton, and wooden buttons. An elongated eye needle makes it easy to thread this thick yarn.
