VERDURE *EXKLUSIV* Au Ver à Soie 7-trådigt silke Alger-tråd för handbroderi

The 7-strand twist is noticeably finer than other silks I’ve tried, so the stitches lie flat without any fraying. I’ve been pairing the deep green with the silver grey for a leaf border, and the contrast is exactly as subtle as I hoped.

I’m not usually someone who notices thread texture, but this silk has a smooth, almost creamy feel that glides through linen without tangling. The greens in this set are so well-paired that even my simplest stitches look like they were shaded on purpose.

The way these seven strands catch the light and twist together gives my stitches a subtle sheen that synthetic floss just can't match. I've been pairing the deep greens with the silvery grey for some leaf shading, and the contrast is exactly what I hoped for.
