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 3886 — Boysenberry

This deep, rich boysenberry sits beautifully within the deep purple-reds range. It pairs naturally with neighbouring DMC shades for gradient blending, and creates striking contrast against complementary colours. Ideal for berry and fruit designs, rich purple-red accents, deep floral work, and autumn colour schemes.
