Rainbow Gallery Subtlety

Rainbow Gallery Subtlety Pearl #12 is a very tightly twisted silk pearl that is close in size to pearl cotton #12. Subtlety Pearl #12 has a tight twist which gives it a very sharp and crisp appearance. Maintain the twist as you stitch so that it does not knot up on the back of the canvas. Subtlety is dye matched to colours of Splendor, Grandeur and Elegance. It is a great fibre for stitching fine counted work and for use in hardanger. Since it is dye matched to the other silks Subtlety can be used in conjunction with them to give even more texture. This is a very strong fibre that can be used in pulled work without breaking.
