LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

For your tapestry and canvas projects, Colbert 486 DMC wool offers a dense and regular texture, ideal for structured stitches and colored areas. The Beech 7058 color, a warm beige tinged with softness, brings subtlety and naturalness to your creations without overwhelming the composition.

This wool 100% virgin wool is made in France and is worked with a tapestry needle adapted to the canvas. The 8 meter skein comfortably covers an average surface in cross stitch or Beauvais stitch. The fiber is robust and regular , without excessive fluffing, which guarantees a clean and durable result on the canvas.

Available in a single unit, this skein can easily be combined with other colors in the Colbert range to create natural gradients or controlled contrasts.

• Separate the skein into single or double strands depending on the desired density and the weave of your canvas.
• Work with needles of 40 to 50 cm to avoid fraying and maintain the regularity of the stitches.
• Beech 7058 works wonderfully in combination with pearl grays and ochres for an effect of natural depth.
• Test on a scrap of canvas before starting your complete work, especially if you are looking for a progressive shading effect.
• This wool is dry cleanable; avoid machine washing or hot water, which may shrink or dull the fiber.

Combine this wool with a quality canvas and a fine tapestry needle to exploit all the finesse of the Beech 7058 color. The complementary balls from the Colbert range - in particular the lighter tones for the lights - will transform your canvas into a piece of character.
