LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

DMC Colbert 486 tapestry wool in green ash 7704 is an 8 m skein designed for embroiderers looking for a subtle and timeless shade. This soft gray-green calms compositions without muting them, ideal for canvas backgrounds or delicate gradients. Made in France, this wool combines tradition and recognized quality.

Composition: 100% virgin wool , guaranteeing exceptional hold for cross stitch, canvas and tapestry. Length: 8 meters per skein , sufficient for a medium-sized surface or several fine details. The natural fiber offers a characteristic matte shine, ideal for classic projects. Colbert number 486 lists the standard thicknesses; this wool crosses easily without linting.

The green ash color 7704 is available in the Colbert range in several shades of gray, green and blue, allowing harmonious compositions on the same project.

• Separate the strands if you are working in half stitch for fine details, keep the whole thread for solid colors.
• Secure your knots when starting on wool: the natural fiber slips less than cotton, but requires regular tension.
• Store this wool away from direct light to preserve the intensity of green ash 7704.
• Combine it with warm beiges or pearl grays for a very refined hidden gradient.
• A skein easily covers a floral pattern or an element of foliage on 10x10 cm of 10-hole canvas.

Combine this wool with other shades from the Colbert DMC range to create complex gradients: combine it with ochres or gray blues for tapestry landscapes, or with ivories for country works. French production guarantees consistent quality from one reel to the next.
