LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

DMC Colbert 486 tapestry wool has established itself as the essential ally for canvas and art embroidery. Blue Campanule 7029 offers a deep and nuanced shade, ideal for structuring a background or creating subtle gradients on embroidery canvas. This wool is distinguished by its natural softness and its smooth finish in cross stitch or crochet.

100% virgin wool , this 8 m skein is made in France and designed for traditional embroidery techniques. The material offers optimal coverage on 10 points per inch canvas. This wool can be worked without excessive twisting: maintain needle lengths of 30 to 40 cm to preserve the structure of the strands and avoid felting.

• Combine Blue Campanule 7029 with lighter shades — pearl gray, sky blue — to create airy, flat gradients.
• Work this wool crochet on fine canvas for a clean and regular result, with no visible stitching points.
• For large cross stitches or textile works of art, a single thickness is enough: wool is naturally bulky.
• Clean your finished work in lukewarm soapy water, without spinning: virgin wool is resistant to vigorous washing.
• Keep your skein away from direct light: the deep blue color can be altered under prolonged UV exposure.

Combine this wool with finer threads — Mouliné Spécial DMC or Coton Perlé — for details and contours: the contrast in material enriches the overall texture of the embroidery.
