My husband needs DMC pearle cotton #8, in a larger ammount than on the



10g balls he can get at the local store.

Does it come on a cone?



Katheryne who is clueless unless it involves leather working or hand spinning yarn.

Katheryne,

I went to my favorite supply store

and searched for perle cotton#8 on cones. The following came up

None of these are #8, so I investigated further and found thatHerrschner's doesn't carry #8 in cones. I then Googled to see what I'dfind, and all the sites listed just those small balls like he's using.I've given the above links in case he might be able to substitute withanother size if he hasn't already started his project. Eve :o)

Pearl Cotton is available in 1 lb cones at

and other places that sell stuff for weavers. Halcyon has it in several weights but I don't know if any match the #8 balls. Shana
