DMC Perle Cotton Size 5 is a twisted, non-divisible thread designed to give stitches crisp definition and raised texture. Made in France, it suits surface embroidery, needlepoint details, and small crochet embellishments where a smooth, even line matters. This skein is colour 895 and contains 25 m (27 yd) of highly mercerized 100% cotton with a luminous sheen. Pair it with standard tapestry or embroidery needles for clean coverage and consistent results.
