LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

DMC Colbert 486 tapestry wool in Undergrowth Green 7702 is the essential ally for your canvas and canvas embroidery projects. This 8 m skein in 100% wool allows you to create regular, covering stitches, ideal for filling the surfaces of your designs with perfect density.

Made in France , this wool offers recognized manufacturing quality. Undergrowth Green 7702 captures a deep, slightly gray forest hue that works beautifully with natural palettes and green gradients. The 100% wool fiber ensures a soft shine and a unique finish on embroidery canvas, particularly appreciated in tapestry.

Here's how to get the most out of this wool for your creations:

• Work with a No. 18 or No. 20 canvas needle depending on your canvas, with needle lengths of 40 to 50 cm to prevent the fiber from fraying.
• Use it in Algiers stitch, Aubusson stitch or paste stitch for the large areas of your work.
• Combine this deep green with lighter shades to create natural shading and relief effects.
• Provide several skeins if your pattern covers a large surface area: 8 m represents approximately 10 to 15 cm² depending on the size of your stitch.
• Clean your finished work in warm soapy water and let it dry flat to preserve the hold of the wool.

This tapestry wool goes perfectly with other colors from the Colbert range to create floristic, geometric or figurative patterns on canvas. Combine it with shades of pearl gray or blue-green for calming harmonies, or with ochres and browns for warm landscapes. It will also delight those looking for quality French wool for their needlework projects: wall tapestry, canvas cushion or small embroidered picture.
