DMC Mouliné Spécial 117 – Butterfly Joy Set – 15 Embroidery Skeins – 8 m / 8.7 yards Each – 6-Strand – 100% Cotton – Made in France by DMC
This Butterfly Joy Set contains 15 skeins of genuine DMC Mouliné Spécial 117 embroidery thread in a coordinated colour palette.
DMC Mouliné Spécial 117 is the world’s most widely used stranded cotton embroidery thread, appreciated for its exceptional quality, durability and colour consistency. Made from 100% long-staple cotton and double-mercerised, it offers a soft sheen, excellent strength and precise stitch definition.
The thread is colourfast and resistant to fading, allowing finished embroidery projects to be washed without risk of colour bleeding when proper care instructions are followed.
Mouliné Spécial 117 is a 6-strand divisible floss, enabling stitchers to adjust the number of strands according to fabric count and the desired coverage. It is suitable for cross-stitch, traditional embroidery, blackwork, counted-thread techniques, appliqué and decorative needlework.
All skeins in this set feature recent DMC labels with protective plastic wrap and are in good condition.
This set comes from stock acquired following the closure of a traditional haberdashery and has been carefully inspected.
