Our read
Written from the manufacturer's listing, the published specs and public owner feedback. We research and analyse — we don't lab-test, and we don't claim to have stitched with this ourselves. Reviewed by the SewingPath team · Hilly Shore Labs · updated October 8, 2026.
Hand embroidery and felt projects. This is six-strand cotton embroidery floss, not sewing thread: DMC says each skein divides into six strands, so one pack covers fine lines with two strands and bold ones with all six.
Skip it if you need thread for a sewing machine or for seams. Floss is for decorative hand stitching; the all-purpose polyester picks on this shelf are the ones for sewing seams and mending.
