DMC Pearl Cotton is a single-strand embroidery thread made for needlepoint, surface stitching, crochet accents, and creative stitchery where you want bold, raised texture. Each Size 3 skein includes 15 m in DMC colour 809, so you can match charts, samplers, and existing thread collections without mixing brands. Unwind the skein before measuring and cut shorter lengths for smoother stitching and fewer snags as you work.
