DMC Blanc Coton a Broder #16

Description

Coton a Broder in white is used as well for traditionally monogramming techniques in hand embroidery. It is an ideal thread for monogramming. Like floche, Coton a Broder makes a beautiful satin stitch, but Coton a Broder is a sturdier thread. Because of this, it stands up quite well to laundering, making it a perfect thread for embellishing household linens, handkerchiefs, and the like with decorative initials and other embroidery. While No. 25 has an extensive color range, the other sizes (16, 20, and 30) are typically available in white and sometimes in ecru, too. These are often referred to as “cutwork” or “whitework” threads, because they are used principally in whitework and cutwork embroidery.
