Eleganza 8wt Perle Cotton Thread - Séance (5g Ball) | WonderFil The Eleganza 8wt Perle Cotton Thread in Séance by WonderFil Specialty Threads is a luxurious hand-stitching thread made from 100% long staple Egyptian cotton. This premium 2-ply thread is double-gassed and mercerised, creating an exceptionally smooth surface with a soft lustre that glides effortlessly through fabric and fibres. The double-gassing process removes lint from the thread twice, resulting in a cleaner, softer finish that is a pleasure to stitch with. Eleganza's tight twist produces beautifully firm stitches that hold their shape, making it ideal for decorative handwork and embellishment stitching. Each 5-gram ball contains approximately 42 yards of richly coloured thread. The elegant Séance shade, a deep purple tone, adds dramatic contrast and depth to embroidery, wool appliqué, sashiko stitching, and other decorative projects. Eleganza threads are available in a wide palette of colours, from vibrant solids to subtle tone-on-tone shades and striking variegated options, making them a favourite for creative hand stitching.
