Weeks Dye Works Cotton Embroidery Floss

This hand over-dyed, 6-stranded Egyptian cotton fibre was Weeks Dye Works' initial product line. It was introduced into the cross-stitch and embroidery market in 1994, and remains their largest line with the most colours available. The colours are variegated enough to be noticeable, yet subtle enough to blend naturally.

Because it is pliable, this fibre is perfect for surface embroidery, cross-stitch and needlepoint on many different counts of fabric and canvas. It also works well for punch needle (1-, 3- and 6-strand) and stitching on wool appliqu?? and penny rugs. It gives a more nuanced appearance to the fine stitching on appliqu?? when compared to the heavier fibres.
