DMC Mouliné Spécial 117 is a stranded cotton embroidery thread designed for cross-stitch, hand embroidery, and needlepoint work. Each pull skein contains 8 m (8.7 yd) of colour 989 floss made from double‑mercerized, long‑staple cotton with six size‑25 strands you can separate to vary stitch coverage. Made in France with fade‑resistant dyes, it helps you keep projects consistent when you need to add matching stitches later.
