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 779 — Dark Cocoa

This rich, warm cocoa brown sits beautifully within the warm browns range. It pairs naturally with neighbouring DMC shades for gradient blending, and creates striking contrast against complementary colours. Ideal for warm brown accents, autumn and harvest designs, neutral shading work, and earth-tone backgrounds.
