DMC6-Strand Embroidery Cotton Floss, Ecru

It was the entire box 12 skeins. Only buy DMC

This is the color I was looking for.

This the perfect Christmas Green

I was anxious when I read the previous review saying that they only received one skein rather than the advertised twelve, but I needed this exact color rather quickly to finish a time-sensitive project so I ordered it anyway. The embroidery floss arrived in a small box with stickers all over the outside saying that it was to be sold as a set and not to separate it, so I must assume that the previous reviewer was the unlucky recipient of a skein that had accidentally been removed from its set. The number was accurate, the color was perfect, and it arrived right on time. I am very pleased!

This color was perfect for my project but I would remove the word light from the description. It is definitely not light grey. It’s a somewhat dark grey like a charcoal. Photo is accurate but description is not. The quality is excellent of the thread and the purchase overall.

These are, in fact, DMC brand, brilliant white, and you get 12 little skeins with your order (some early reviews indicated they did not, but it seems either the seller or Amazon corrected this!). As a newbie to embroidery floss, I didn't realize there were different sizes of these DMC threads and thought this was the thicker cotton thread (which go for around $1.76 at common arts & crafts chains) but it's actually the smaller thread. As I figured out after it arrived, the larger string is twisted and thicker where this is 6 strand (I think it's less thick), not twisted, and divisible. These run for around $0.52 a piece in other places, so the cost on here is a little on the high side even for a 12 pack. However, it is exactly what is described and is convenient if you don't feel like driving to the store or the prime shipping makes it worth it to you. Hope this helps!

Perfect for my fairy's skin. I'll be looking for other colors for my fairy's skin tone. Hopefully they will be in nice packages like this one.

The color is very pretty, but for over $4 I only received one skein. After reading reviews I was lead to believe it was a twelve pack. This was either a mistake or a huge rip off. I will be trying to get a refund

Very pretty color. Seems like the expected quality which is great.

Did I misinterpret that the item should have been a box of 12? Very disappointed and can’t use for the project.

Great service and price

As expected.

Perfect for my embroidery project.
