DMC six-strand cotton embroidery floss is made for hand stitching on fabric for needlework and embellishment. This pull skein provides 8 m (8.7 yd) of thread in shade 809 Delft Blue, made from double-mercerized cotton for a smooth, light-catching finish. Wind leftover thread onto a bobbin to reduce tangles and keep your colour plan easy to track between sessions, especially during frequent shade changes.
