Dimensional Shades Soie Gimp - Gold/Green
Au Ver a Soie
Filament Silk gimp is a round, cord-like thread made of Soie Ovale for hand embroidery.
It's smooth finish bestows a distinct raised texture in surface couching or detached stitches such as trellis stitch.
Great thread choice for Pekinese, herringbone or any stitch done on a surface ground.
Use in canvaswork with shorter 14 inch lengths for any flat stitches such as Byzantine, as it provides a unique textural effect.
Also can be couched on canvas with our matching Soie 1003 or one ply of Soie de Paris.
We recommend a 22 or 24 Chenille Needle.
