The Golden Warm Tan
Caramel is one of those immediately recognisable colours -- the warm, golden, slightly amber tan of caramel candy and warm autumn light. Glide 20467 Caramel positions this specific colour as a thread: a warm, golden medium tan with more depth than Sand and less darkness than Mocha, sitting in the useful mid-range position of the warm tan spectrum. On caramel-toned fabrics, golden autumn tones, warm honey-coloured backgrounds, and any design where the tan should read as specifically warm and golden rather than simply neutral, Caramel provides the most accurate thread match.
