Product Description
This pretty shade of metallic bluey purple can be used as a mid or dark tone in your needlework to add shadow and depth to your work. Mauve dye was created accidentally by a young British scientist who was trying to make a treatment for Malaria. Mauve was popularized in England by Queen Victoria but eschewed by the current queen who won’t allow mauve flowers in her palaces.
Sold in 8.7 yard/8 meter skeins, its six strands separate easily. Add depth and fine details to your work by varying the number of strands you use.
Colorfast dyes ensure your work can be washed without fear of the color fading or bleeding.
