Stitch smooth, consistent colour with DMC 117 6‑strand cotton floss in shade 725. Each 8 m (8.7 yd) skein is made from long‑staple cotton and double‑mercerized for a bright, silky sheen, and the 6 separable strands let you fine‑tune thickness for cross‑stitch, embroidery, needlepoint, and smocking. Colourfast and fade resistant for lasting results, it’s made in France and works well on most fabrics for detailing, borders, and small motifs.
