Spun "Alger" silk thread for hand embroidery from Au Ver à Soie Paris, in my exclusively selected range of electric, neon colors! Loosely plyed, this silk floss separates easily for work as fine as 1-2 strands. Bright and soft with an excellent tensile strength and smooth twist for snag-free needle working. The unrivaled quality of their raw silk means it does not abrade easily. And yes, it's colorfast and washable!

Au Ver à Soie silks have been made by the same family in Paris since 1820.

There are six colors in the NEON palette.

  • 100% spun silk
  • 7 strand floss
  • 5 meters per skein
  • colorfast and washable
  • Made in France

Each Sublime Stitching x Au Ver à Soie palette is packed in a reusable envelope for storing your silks. Use the window cutout to continue pulling from the skeins!

Chloe N. ★★★★★

The separation is so clean that I can easily split it down to a single strand for the tiniest details in my floral patterns. The neon color really pops against dark fabric without any twisting or tangling while I stitch.

Aurora F. ★★★★★

Finally, silk embroidery thread that actually glows under blacklight. The strands separate perfectly for stitching tiny details in my crazy quilt.

Timothy M. ★★★★★

These neon colors are absolutely electric in person, perfect for adding a punch to any embroidery project. I love how easily the loosely plied strands separate down to just one, giving me total control for fine details.
