Madeira Silk Embroidery Floss

Madeira Silk Embroidery Floss is a high quality 100% pure silk 4-strand floss. It is a durable silk that is easy to work with for many applications such as needlework (including cross-stitching), quilting, smocking and other precious work for which the highest quality silk floss is required. This floss is also great for kumihimo braiding.
It is packed in a spiral in a little plastic bag 1 7/8" wide by 4 5/8" tall (4.8 cm by 12 cm). The thread is pulled simply by cutting a 'V' at the bottom of the spiral pack. This clever method keeps the thread clean and tangle free. It allows to pull out exactly the amount of thread needed without any extra work such as winding the floss on a card prior to use. The 4 strand can be easily separated. Each strand has a soft 2-ply S twist.
