Embroidery thread - Retors du Nord assortments

Embroidery floss 100% cotton Retors du Nord assortments

For ecological reasons, our Retors du Nord embroidery floss is not colourfast. To make a thread colourfast involves using highly polluting treatments, which, in our opinion, are totally unjustified for embroidery purposes. However, it can be washed up to 40°C – just be careful never to use boiling water or bleach.

Presented in elegant boxes, our Retors du Nord assortments are perfect for exploring the different colour ranges of our collection. Each assortment is carefully themed:

Vintage colours: soft, nostalgic tones ideal for embroidery projects with a classic charm.
Modern colours: vibrant, contemporary shades to create dynamic designs.
Essential colours: a versatile selection of must-have shades for any project.
Pastel colours: delicate, light tones for refined and airy embroidery.
The complete box of 96 colours: a spectacular presentation of all the colours in our range, perfect for passionate embroiderers or as a collector’s item.

These assortments are ideal for gifts or starting your own collection. They combine an aesthetic presentation with practical storage solutions.

Looking for creative inspiration? In our embroidery blog, Madame Sajou's Diary, you’ll find ideas on how to embellish some of our printed fabrics with Retors du Nord embroidery floss.

Like all our embroidery threads, Retors du Nord is MADE IN FRANCE. Its production respects the environment and our artisanal values.
