LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

Are you preparing a canvas or a tapestry that requires depth? DMC Colbert 486 tapestry wool in bronze green 7048 offers this sophisticated, slightly gray shade, which enriches the backgrounds without overwhelming the work. Made in France, this wool combines tradition and recognized quality.

100% virgin wool , the Colbert 486 is characterized by its generous diameter and its incredible regularity. The 8 meter skein easily covers a large surface area, allowing regular and tight stitches on medium and large weave canvas. This natural material offers a soft shine and remarkable hold to tapestry needles.

• Work on 14 to 18 stitches/inch canvas with a tapestry needle numbered 18 or 20 for even coverage.
• Bronze green 7048 blends wonderfully with ochres, pearl grays and slate blues to create natural gradients.
• Place your needle a few centimeters deep in the work to avoid visible knots and prolong the hold of the work.
• This wool requires dry cleaning; avoid machine washing, even in cold water, which would alter the shine and structure of the fibers.
• Wrap unused skeins in tissue paper to protect them from dust and light variations.

Combine this tapestry wool with skeins of pearl gray or sand beige Colbert for timeless botanical or geometric patterns. DMC Colbert 486 is the lasting ally of your most beautiful canvases.
