About this item

Special Egyptian Cotton: Made of premium quality smooth Egyptian cotton. OEKO-TEX certified, which means no toxic substances were used to make this eco-friendly product. Its brilliant shine and unique softness makes it the most popular thread around the eastern parts of the world.
Convenient Packaging: Embroidery thread is about 8.75 yards long and each skein of embroidery floss comes in 6 strands. Each Floss is tightly packed, just find the line head, pull it upright without having to tear the wrapping paper. Packaging keeps strings from falling apart and makes it easy to use the product.
Beautiful Variegated Colours: 12 Pieces Variegated embroidery threads to pick from. Make delicate and eye-catching patterns or use it for a simple embellishment. Solid colour gives vibrant and long-lasting finish.
Pearlized Shine: Long-staple skein cotton floss is soft, silky, and strong, leaves more lustrous finish and does not fluff or tangle. It has been double mercerized which gives it a stunning pearlized gloss and extra smoothness.
Multi-purpose: Its unique texture is great for handmade sewing decoration, a string for bracelets, corsages, clothing decoration, adornments, children's crafts, tassels or any holiday decorations."

As the title says this was thick, nice thread and I did a pre wash just in case and the water was perfectly clear.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Embroidery Thread for the Price
Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2024
I was a little skeptical at first because it seemed really inexpensive for a lot of embroidery thread. I had no idea how many skeins I needed for the tassels I was making. The thread is easy to work with and great quality for the price, although now I have a lot of extra red thread.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good value for a good product, but falls short of DMC quality
Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2024
It was nice to make a bulk purchase of a cotton variegated floss in one colour, and for less than 50 cents per skein, this is a great value. As a side note, I wish UMC had more of their variegated colours available in these bulk packs (I could use a 12-pack of variegated yellow or gold).

In a side by side comparison to a DMC brand Coloris floss (shown in photo), the UMC floss is not quite as smooth, not quite as shiny, and maybe the tiniest bit thinner. That being said, I used this floss alongside DMC floss and it would be hard to determine the difference if you weren’t already aware.

I would purchase this again for more casual crafts, but I’ll remain a DMC snob for larger cross stitch projects.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nice thread for hand stitching with some difficulties of self tangling
Reviewed in the United States on December 14, 2023
This thread is great thread, let me make that clear first. It is strong, takes pulling on it real well, doesn't fray easily. With that said, it will twist on itself the more you thread it through materials to the point it causes knotting which can be a pain to undo if you are not paying attention to it and pull the thread tight. To avoid this, I have to release the needle every 10 stitches or so to let the thread spin back to it's proper place again, then re-thread the needle again. It is not a big deal, just sometimes I forget and it knots badly and I have to spend a few minutes untangling it. The shorter the thread length I work with the less this happens, the long thread length causes this tangling frequently. Still 5/5 thread would order again when needed.
