DMC Six-Strand Embroidery Floss is a 100% cotton skein for embroidery, cross-stitch, friendship bracelets, mending and decorative needlework. This green shade family thread comes in an 8 m (8.7 yd) skein with six divisible strands, letting makers vary coverage from fine lines to fuller fills. Colourfast, fade-resistant dyes help finished work stay vibrant, while double-mercerized long-staple cotton gives the floss a smooth sheen.
