DMC Mouliné Spécial 117 is a premium, divisible 6‑strand cotton embroidery floss for cross‑stitch, needlepoint, and surface embroidery on Aida, linen, or canvas. Each 8 m (8.7 yd) pull‑skein is double mercerized for a bright sheen and smooth stitch definition in shade 115. The dye is colourfast and fade resistant for lasting projects, and the pull‑skein format stores neatly on bobbins. Separate strands for fine detail or combine them for fuller coverage.
