About This Thread
DMC Mouliné Stranded Cotton is the world's best-selling embroidery thread, trusted by stitchers since 1746. Every 8-metre skein contains 6 easily separated strands so you can customise thickness — use all 6 for bold, dense coverage, or work with a single strand for fine shading and intricate detail.
Colour 12 — Absinthe
This vivid, bright yellow-green sits beautifully within the vivid yellow-greens range. It pairs naturally with neighbouring DMC shades for gradient blending, and creates striking contrast against complementary colours. Ideal for bold accent stitching, tropical leaf work, vivid nature designs, and contemporary embroidery.
