Each Colour and Cotton cotton skein is hand dyed on a DMC base and comprised of 8 yards, packaged in individual cut-yard lengths on a hang tag. Our threads are soft, easy to work with and provide great coverage on a variety of fabrics!
COLOR VARIATION: Color swatches are representative of the general sense of each color. Color may vary by base cotton, digital monitor, etc. We make every effort to maintain consistency in our colors, but please note that dye lots over time will vary. This is natural and part of what makes hand dyed fibers so special and unique to work with!
