Needle Necessites

Needle Necessites
Price: £3.15

Floss Overdyed is a fine Egyptian cotton that has been overdyed by hand to create subtle shading. It is often vari-colored but approximately 65% of the 171 colors are primarily within a color family. Upon opening your skein you will notice the coloring is unevenly "bled" from one shade/color to the next. This is done to give you a smooth transition of color in your stitching, especially for shading.

Weeks Dye Works

Weeks Dye Works
Price: £2.09

This hand over-dyed, 6 stranded cotton fibre was our initial product line. It was introduced into the cross stitch market/industry and is our largest line with the most colours. The colours are variegated enough to be noticeable, yet subtle enough to blend naturally. Because it is pliable, this fibre is perfect for cross stitch and needlepoint on many different counts of fabric and canvas. It gives a more subtle appearance to the fine stitching on appliqué than some of the heavier fibres like pearl cotton.
