LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

For your tapestry or canvas projects, Colbert 486 wool in pink sand 7144 offers a soft and timeless shade. This warm color, between powder pink and pearly beige, adapts equally well to floral patterns and geometric compositions. The 8 m skein is easily worked with a tapestry needle, allowing you to cover surfaces without needing to separate the strands.

100% wool composition , this natural fiber brings volume and substance to your stitches, while offering exemplary regularity from one stitch to the next. Made in France , it benefits from DMC know-how in terms of color and strength. The fiber does not have difficulty coming loose if you need to correct a detail, which saves time on small adjustments.

• Work with needles specific to tapestry for a regular, snag-free finish.
• Combine this pink sand with ivory or cream tones for a subtle and luminous gradient.
• Use a working length of 40 to 50 cm to maintain the shine of the wool without weakening it.
• Test on a remainder of canvas before embroidering your final work, especially if you plan to wash it later.
• Complete with complementary colors in taupe gray or sienna to enrich your palette.

Combine this Colbert wool with embroidery canvases of different counts, or combine it with skeins of Mouliné Spécial DMC to create material effects on your embroidery. Pink sand 7144 also goes well with delicate pearls or small gold sequins for sophisticated finishes.
