Online Catalogue : Threads DMC Stranded Cotton DMC Stranded Cotton (art no 117) 8m (8.7yds) skein. 65p per skein. A colourfast, six stranded divisible thread made of double mercerised long staple cotton fibres. This gives it the glossy look that makes it look like silk. It is ideal for Cross Stitch, Counted Thread , Embroidery, Tapestry, Smocking, Counted Beadwork, Creative Embroidery, Punchwork, Blackwork, Cutwork, etc. Gentle Art Threads Gentle Art Sampler Threads and Simply Shaker Threads were developed to give new pieces of embroidery an aged appearance. The cotton threads are six stranded and the colours are muted. The colour variations per strand are subtle. These threads are hand-dyed in small amounts, there may be colour and shade variations from dye lot to dye lot and because of this we do not recommend laundering your finished embroidery. Part of the excitement of working with these threads is that no two stitched pieces will look the same. Each finished piece is an original. With overdyed threads there is no need to worry about constantly changing thread colours in the needle; one strand of floss takes the place of several individual thread colours. Sorry there is no colour image. Weeks Dye Works Weeks Dye Works specialise in Hand over dyed Fibers. This hand over-dyed, 6 stranded cotton fibre is perfect for Cross Stitch and Needlepoint. The colours are varigated enough to be noticeable, yet subtle enough to blend naturally. The ideas for the colour names come from nature or places. The floss is 100% cotton (Anchor) and being hand over- dyed is not guaranteed to be colour fast so it is recommended that the thread is not washed as this will fade the colours. Weeks Dye Works come in five yard lengths.
