Add a powdery touch to your projects with this Tonkin yarn in old rose, subtly highlighted with gold.
Made in France, this Tonkin thread combines textured polyester with a fine strand of gold Lurex woven into the yarn. This construction gives it a lustrous, slightly voluminous finish that highlights stitches without looking too metallic. Its good hold and resistance to fraying allow you to work with greater confidence, even on patterns that require multiple passes of thread.
How to use this embroidery thread?
Dusty pink lends itself particularly well to floral embroidery and delicate color palettes. Use it to embroider petals, buds, or small patterns on a garment. The design of this hibiscus border embroidered on a T-shirt collar can be adapted using old rose, garnet, and green. For larger embroidery areas, a 30-cm embroidery hoop will allow you to work comfortably.
Tonkin can also be used beyond the realm of traditional textile embroidery. Use this shade to create a small embroidered brooch, decorate a fabric pendant, or combine thread and beads in a piece of jewelry. The subtle golden sheen adds a luxurious finish without requiring many metallic elements.
Our tutorials and technical guides support both beginners and experienced creators with explanations, advice, and tips to help them discover new stitches and perfect their projects.
