Eleganza 2-ply Perle Cotton, #5 solids. From acclaimed stitch designer Sue Spargo, her Primitives collection of Eleganza: the softer side of color! Passionate about stitching, Sue set out to design a product of utmost quality to meet the specific needs of hand stitchers, embroiderers and embellishers, working in collaboration with WonderFil Specialty Threads. Eleganza is made from 100% Giza 88, the highest caliber extra long staple Egyptian cotton: fibers spun with this create a thread of extreme softness, strength and luster. An extra 15% twist has been incorporated into the design of Eleganza resulting in a thread of superior stability, uniformity and sewability. Eleganza is double gassed and mercerized to eliminate build up of lint and snub; use for wool applique, hand embroidery, Sashiko and more. (Sue offers the following recommendations for needles when stitching with 5wt Eleganza: Chenille #24 (Clover, Tulip), Milliners #1.) In her Primitives collection, Sue has designed a subdued color palette along with a unique line of variegates. (Swatches below are of #8 Perle; all Sue Spargo Eleganza Primitives thread colors are the same through the two weights.) Sold per 40 yard (37m) spool and available in 25 solid colors, choose below:
