Though these Swedish skeins do not say “cotton”, the indanthren dye method was most commonly used on cotton in the past. The cotton fibers accept and hold the dyes best. The brilliance of these skeins is unbelievable. This bundle of 5 has the following colors: 1 skein - 919 red orange with coral notes 1 skein - 844 bright rust 1 skein - 858 brick red with some orange tones 2 skeins - 848 berry red NOTES: 1) perle cotton is a twisted double-strand that is very glossy; 2) indanthren dyed is a process which produces very vibrant and maximum colorfastness. The history of indanthren is fascinating.
