This hand-over-dyed,  Six-Strand Embroidery Floss by Weeks Dye Works™ made from Egyptian cotton fiber is variegated enough to be noticeable yet subtle enough to blend naturally.  Because it is pliable, this fiber is perfect for surface embroidery, cross stitch, and needlepoint on many different counts of fabric and canvas. It also works great for punch needle (1, 3, and 6 strand) and stitching on wool applique and penny rugs.  It gives a more subtle appearance to the fine stitching on applique than some of the other heavier fibers like pearl cotton.

All shades are hand-dyed so colors within each skein do vary slightly. This is an integral dynamic of the character which hand-dyed fibers add to finished needlework and works up beautifully.

Available in a vast variety of colors; each sold separately. Made in the USA.
