LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

DMC Colbert 486 tapestry wool in pink hyacinth color 7125 is the essential ally for all your canvas and canvas embroidery projects. This 8 meter skein in 100% virgin wool offers a warm pink, slightly orange tint, perfect for structuring backgrounds or creating subtle gradients on embroidery canvas.

A French wool of recognized quality. Made in France, this Colbert wool guarantees exceptional yarn regularity and foolproof color fastness. The pink hyacinth color 7125 does not fade when washed and retains its shine over the years. Colbert wool is worked with a tapestry needle on canvas with small or medium stitches, ideal for medium-sized works.

• Work with a No. 18 or 20 tapestry needle for better glide on the embroidery canvas.
• Cut lengths of 40 to 50 cm to prevent the wool from fraying while working.
• Use this color in gradient with paler pinks or corals for a more pictorial and less solid look.
• Wash your finished item in lukewarm water with a mild soap specific to wool, without spinning.
• The pink hyacinth color 7125 enhances traditional petit point or contemporary canvas projects on Aida canvas.

Pair this wool with neutral tones — pearl gray, ivory, taupe — to let the pink breathe, or create a vibrant contrast by pairing it with deep blues or emerald greens. A must-have in the embroidery box for designers looking for soft and timeless colors.
