LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

DMC Colbert 486 tapestry wool is the essential ally for your canvas and canvas embroidery works. Made from 100% virgin wool, this 8m skein offers a rich, generous texture, ideal for traditional tapestry stitches and cross-stitch projects on thick canvas. The color Jute 7724, a natural beige with warm reflections, fits harmoniously into neutral and rustic palettes, bringing depth without overwhelming the composition.

French manufacturing which guarantees quality and know-how. This wool comes in thick, structured strands, designed to quickly cover surfaces in just a few tight stitches. Each thread maintains a smooth and regular texture which glides without lint, even after several passes over the canvas. The generous thickness of the Colbert 486 allows you to embroider with a bobbin or canvas needle, depending on your preference and the density of your support canvas.

• Thread your canvas needle with the length of an outstretched hand: you will avoid fraying and gain stitch regularity.
• Combine several Jute shades on the same work to create a gradient or subtle relief: the natural shade goes wonderfully with pearl grays and off-whites.
• Use this wool on 10 or 12 points per centimeter canvas for a dense and durable result, perfect for wall decoration projects or cushions.
• Store your skeins away from direct light to preserve the natural shine of the wool and avoid premature discoloration.
• Try a variety of stitches — full cross stitch, chain stitch, half stitch — to exploit the visual richness of this warm beige.

Combine this Jute 7724 with threads from the Colbert range in neutral tones to embroider homogeneous canvas backgrounds, or combine it with stronger contrasting colors. A great choice for your durable and timeless tapestry projects.
