Glissen Gloss

Colorwash Silk



 

Add rich luster and subtle color variations to all your stitchery with Glissen Gloss Colorwash embroidery silk imported from Japan, and hand painted in the USA. Colorwash hand painted Japanese embroidery silk is available in 56 intricate, variegated colorations. The hand painting process produces the elegant impressions of dozens of ever-changing colors in a single coloration.
 
Colorwash lends a unique, individual style and character to everything from intricate flowers to sophisticated backgrounds and more. Colorwash is spun using extra-long single filament silk for soft, strong, smooth threads that stitch virtually fuzz and pill free. Each Colorwash card is wound with six yards (5.5m) of 12-ply silk. Since one ply of silk offers similar coverage to one ply of cotton floss, that six yards of 12-ply silk will stitch about the same area as 12 yards of 6-ply cotton.
