DMC Colouris is a variegated embroidery floss for cross-stitch and surface embroidery when you want natural colour movement in one thread. This single skein in Maple (4510) provides 8 m of cotton floss for accents, borders, and small motifs on cotton, linen, and other stitchable fabrics. For consistent results, begin new sections from the same end of the skein and store leftovers on a bobbin to keep the thread neat between projects.
