For embroiderers and cross-stitchers, DMC thread is the gold standard. This is a single skein of their famous stranded cotton in color 501—a lovely blue-green shade. It's 100% cotton, so it's strong, smooth, and easy to work with. You can separate the strands (it comes as 6 loosely twisted strands) to adjust thickness for your project. The colors are colorfast and washable at up to 60°C, so your finished piece will stay vibrant. Whether you're filling in a large area, adding fine details, or blending colors, DMC thread gives you consistent results. Every stitcher needs a stash of these skeins. Perfect for hand embroidery, cross-stitch, needlepoint, quilting, and more. Keep a few on hand for repairs or small projects, or buy in bulk for bigger designs. Reliable quality you can count on.
