LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

DMC Colbert 486 tapestry wool is the ideal choice for your canvas and embroidery projects on aida or cheesecloth. Sahara 7143, a warm beige with golden nuances, brings luminosity to the most delicate compositions, from traditional patterns to contemporary creations. This neutral shade pairs with your entire color palette.

Made from 100% virgin wool , this noble material offers incomparable softness and exceptional hold on canvas. The 8 meter skein allows you to cover a generous surface area without interruption. Colbert DMC wool, made in France , guarantees constant quality and a stable color over time, without risk of fading. Its regular thickness glides effortlessly in canvas crossings.

Available in a single color per skein, Sahara 7143 is easily stored and combined with other references to enrich your canvas technique. Colbert wool is suitable for both small, minute details and large areas, depending on the density of your stitching.

• Thread your canvas needle with lengths of 50 to 60 cm to prevent the wool from fraying while working.
• Work in cross stitch, half-cross stitch or backstitch depending on the desired texture effect on your work.
• Test Sahara shade 7143 on a discreet corner of your canvas before starting the entire pattern.
• Store your wool away from direct light to preserve the shine of this warm beige.
• Combine Sahara 7143 with light browns or ochres to create natural and harmonious gradients.

Pair this wool with other DMC Colbert shades to enrich your composition: pearl grays, creams and delicate browns complement each other on medium canvas. This wool will also be your ally for restoring old tapestries or creating brocade cushions with timeless patterns.
