Rainbow Gallery Mandarin Floss is a beautiful and easy to use 100% bamboo 6 strand floss. Use Mandarin Floss wherever you would a cotton floss, strand for strand. Ply up or down to suit your needs. It lays better than cotton because it is softer and yet is still quite strong. You can use slightly longer stitching lengths since it wears better. It is less costly than silk but has many silk-like properties. Its semi-matte finish doesn't overpower your other stitches. Most matte threads lines have gone off the market and Mandarin Floss works well as a substitute. Blends well with with metallic filament for cross stitching. Great for French Knots, Turkey Work, tassels and twisted cords.
