DMC stranded cotton embroidery floss is designed for hand stitching on many fabrics, from cross-stitch to surface embroidery and needlepoint where smooth coverage and clean colour changes are important. Each pull skein is 8 m (8.7 yd) and is identified by DMC shade number and name to match charts and patterns, such as Colour 94. Wind onto a bobbin for storage and cut manageable lengths while stitching to help reduce tangles and keep your work neat.
