Please can someone tell me what "The Caron Collection Wildflowers, 100%Caron Wildflowers is a Perle 8 which has been hand dyed in variagated colours.
hand-dyed cotton thread" is like.
I have just found a hardanger pattern, a few years old, which uses this
thread in conjuntion with, (or in stead of) the usual thread - Perle nos 5,
& 8. Is is a single thread, like the Perle, or is it stranded, like usual
embroidery floss? It appears, from the picture, to be multi-coloured.
I have not heard of it before, and wonder where I can get it, or what I can
use as a substitute.
Caron Watercolours is a six strand thread but the strands are readily separable and each of these is a Perle5, again hand dyed in variagated colours.
Have a look at http://www.caron-net.com/threads.html
