LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

DMC Colbert tapestry wool is your ally for all canvas and tapestry projects that require finesse and regularity. Rose passion 7107, a vibrant red verging on fuchsia, brings radiance to delicate works as well as larger creations. This 8 meter skein in 100% wool allows you to work on embroidery canvas without thread separation: you use the thread as is to obtain regular and uniform coverage.

Composition and origin : 100% virgin wool, made in France. This fine and soft wool is easily worked with a needle and fits perfectly to the weave of the canvas. The Rose passion 7107 color retains its shine after washing in lukewarm water, without felting if you respect the recommended temperature.

The Colbert 486 range is available in a palette of harmonious colors, from powder pink to deep reds, allowing subtle gradients and infinite chromatic associations for your classic or contemporary tapestry projects.

• Work with needles of 60 cm maximum to prevent the wool from fluffing during stitching.
• The half-point tapestry stitch covers quickly: adapt your embroidery canvas according to your surface to fill.
• Combine Rose passion 7107 with neutral tones — ecru, light gray — to structure your composition without overloading the contrasts.
• Gently wash in lukewarm water, without vigorous spinning: the wool regains its suppleness when dried flat.
• Create gradients by alternating Rose passion 7107 with a lighter powder pink for a very couture shaded effect.

Combine this wool with a high-quality canvas – linen or woven cotton – and an upholstery needle suitable for counting your canvas. The warm shades of the Colbert range also combine with gold or silver thread for delicate finishing accents.
