DMC Coton A Broder is an ideal choice for embroidery enthusiasts seeking a professional, high-precision finish on intricate needlework projects. Crafted from premium long-fibre cotton that has been combed, singed, and mercerised, this non-divisible thread offers exceptional softness and a consistent, neat appearance; however, users should note that the 28-metre spool length is intended for detailed accents rather than large-scale background filling.

No, this thread is designed as a non-divisible, four-strand thread. It is intended to be used as a whole unit to maintain its consistent finish.
Standard floss is typically divisible into six strands, whereas Coton A Broder is specifically engineered to remain as a single, uniform unit with a different manufacturing treatment for increased smoothness and precision.
Yes, but for the longevity of your embroidery, hand-washing in cool water is recommended to maintain the mercerised lustre.
Each individual spool contains 28 metres of thread.
The cotton is passed through a flame to remove surface fuzz or 'hairiness,' which ensures the thread is perfectly smooth and prevents it from fluffing while you stitch.
Ensure you are using a sharp needle suited for the fabric weight and check that your fabric backing is properly tensioned in the hoop.
Keep your thread length short—around 30-40cm—to prevent the thread from wearing thin or twisting as you pull it through the fabric multiple times.
To achieve the best results with Coton A Broder, use a sharp embroidery needle that is large enough to prevent friction on the thread but fine enough to maintain precision. Because the thread is non-divisible, do not attempt to split the strands; use the full thickness as provided. For long-term care, projects embroidered with this thread should be hand-washed in cool water with mild soap and dried flat. If ironing is necessary, place a pressing cloth between the embroidery and the iron to protect the thread's natural sheen and texture.
