DMC Pearl Cotton Variations is a single-strand thread for embroidery and decorative stitching when you want subtle tonal patterning. This Size 5 skein provides 25 m (27 yd) in Colour 4230 and comes as a twisted floss that is used as-is rather than separating strands. Choose it for borders, monograms, and textured stitches, and rely on consistent shade matching when adding more thread to a project later.
