About This Thread

DMC Mouliné Stranded Cotton is the world's best-selling embroidery thread, trusted by stitchers since 1746. Every 8-metre skein contains 6 easily separated strands so you can customise thickness — use all 6 for bold, dense coverage, or work with a single strand for fine shading and intricate detail.

Colour 3821 — Straw

This warm, natural straw yellow sits beautifully within the warm yellows range. It pairs naturally with neighbouring DMC shades for gradient blending, and creates striking contrast against complementary colours.
