DMC Coton A Broder, specifically the size 25 variant, is a premium choice for embroidery enthusiasts seeking a refined, professional finish for their needlework projects. Crafted from high-quality, long-staple cotton, this thread is ideal for delicate detailing where consistency and smoothness are paramount; however, because the four strands are non-divisible, it is intended for use as a whole thread rather than for projects requiring thread separation.

No, this thread is non-divisible and is designed to be used as a single, 4-strand unit.
Each skein of DMC Coton A Broder size 25 contains 28 metres of thread.
No, this is a different product. Coton A Broder is non-divisible and is processed for a specific smooth finish, unlike divisible stranded cotton.
Mercerisation is a treatment that gives the cotton fibre a silkier appearance, improved strength, and better dye affinity.
It is recommended to hand wash your finished embroidery in cool water with mild soap to maintain the thread's integrity.
Ensure your needle eye is not too small; if the needle is too thin, the thread will pull and fray against the eye.
Ensure you are using an embroidery hoop to keep the fabric taut, as the non-divisible nature of this thread requires a stable surface to lay flat.
To achieve the best results, ensure you are using an embroidery needle with a large enough eye to accommodate the non-divisible 4-strand thickness. This thread performs best on medium-weight cotton or linen fabrics.
To care for your finished work, hand wash using a mild detergent and cool water. Avoid harsh bleaching agents that can compromise the mercerised finish. When pressing finished embroidery, place the work face down on a soft towel and use a low-heat iron to preserve the texture and sheen of the thread.
