4020 Tropical Waters – DMC Colour Variations #5 Perle Cotton Skein

Subtlety is the secret behind the beauty of DMC's Pearl Cotton Variations. This "over-dyed", non-divisible cotton thread features multiple colors that harmoniously progress from one to the other. Use this luminous thread for cross-stitch, embroidery, needlepoint, hardanger, punch needle, pulled thread, smocking, applique, as well as other types of creative stitchery. DMC Pearl Cotton Variations offer guaranteed DMC color consistency from one skein to the next.

DMC Coton Perlé, Pearl Cotton, or Perle Cotton is named for its twist, which can resemble tiny strung pearls. Solid colours come in four sizes - the thickest is #3, next is #5, then #8, and finally #12. #5 is roughly equivalent to the full 6 strands of embroidery floss, and the colour numbers transfer between floss and Coton Perlé. Colour Variations (variegated) are available in sizes 5 and 8, but not in all colours

Ideal for lower-count fabrics in counted work, Hardanger Kloster blocks, and surface embroidery.

All currently manufactured colours are available though may not be listed here. Unlisted colours may be special ordered (please see link in menu)
