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 918 — Dark Red Copper
This warm, metallic copper sits beautifully within the coppers and russets range. It pairs naturally with neighbouring DMC shades for gradient blending, and creates striking contrast against complementary colours. Ideal for autumn leaf designs, metallic accent work, art nouveau motifs, and folk art patterns.
