In yellowish-orange (743), this DMC Perlé No. 8 embroidery thread has a warm tone, halfway between orange and yellow, ideal for sunny, floral motifs and softer autumn compositions. It is made of 100% mercerized cotton, combed, flame-singed and mercerized twice, which gives it a pearly sheen and a soft surface to the touch. Because it is not divisible, it always maintains the same thickness, facilitating stitch control. It comes in a 10g skein with 80 meters, with long-lasting color even after frequent washing. It is suitable for traditional embroidery, cross-stitch, hardanger, richelieu, blackwork, redwork, smocking, appliqué and crochet, being a versatile color for warm and vibrant compositions.
