Mercerized Perle Cotton Size 5 2-ply, put-up on 230 yard, 1.75 ounce core balls,  are $2.99 each
I love this stuff and use it a lot in my doll designing.  I use it in place of #10 because It is much softer, and has a real sheen to it, which I like for dolls and special things.  I think it's a good bargain too, because you get 230 yds. on each ball!   The colors match the Cabled Cotton colors so for the bigger dolls I like to use the cabled cotton for the main outfit, and trim or accessorize with this perle cotton.

If you're like me, you get frustrated looking for some of those unusual variegated colors from year's past.  I know it is next to impossible to find the pansy variegated for those lovely pansy doilies we all love to make.  Or try to find a variegated red, white and blue and you will tear your hair out looking!  That's why I decided to have the mill do some custom dying for me.  Since I am so partial to this perle cotton, I had all the colors I had done in #10 done up in the perle as well!
And now I am able to offer you four shades of custom dyed variegated perle cotton here!
Red, White and Blue
Light Pansy (yellows, med. purples)
Dark Pansy (yellows, golds, dk. purple)
Pink Lemonade (yellows and baby pink)

Custom dyed shades--balls are 230 yds. each, and are priced differently from regular perle cotton. These colors are also available in 300 yd. balls of size 10 thread).

I have had quite a few ladies tell me recently they are using this perle cotton to make sock trim for infant, toddler and children's socks.  Some of them are even adding beads.  Many of them are selling them to friends or at crafts fairs, bazaars, craft malls.
