The Cocon Calais Fil Au Chinois is a fine thread made of 100% cotton, especially appreciated for lace, point de Beauvais, and fine embroidery work.
Made in France, this quality thread consists of 3 twisted strands. It is gassed and mercerized, two treatments that give it a particularly smooth and even appearance, great strength, and a slight sheen. Its fineness, close to a cotton no. 80, allows for precise and delicate work.
Ideal for point de Beauvais
The Cocon Calais is particularly interesting for point de Beauvais embroidery done with crochet. Its fineness and regularity allow for the creation of neat and regular small chains and for precise work on contours, details, and fine patterns.
It thus constitutes an excellent choice for delicate embroidery, floral patterns, ornaments, and projects requiring a fine and strong cotton thread.
A versatile thread
Originally intended for lace, the Cocon Calais can be used for many needlework projects:
- point de Beauvais with crochet
- bobbin lace
- traditional embroidery
- fine embroidery
- sewing
- cross-stitch
- quilting and small decorative projects
Practical presentation in a cocoon
The thread unwinds directly from the center of the cocoon. This traditional presentation allows the cocoon to stay in place during work and facilitates the smooth unwinding of the thread.
