LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

DMC Colbert 486 Aubergine 7147 tapestry wool is essential for your canvas and needle embroidery projects. This deep and warm color, between plum and burgundy, brings chromatic richness to the most refined compositions. Ideal for cross stitching on canvas as well as for fine tapestry, this wool reveals all its nobility on medium density canvases.

Composition 100% wool , this 8 meter skein can be easily worked with a tapestry or embroidery needle, depending on the desired thickness. Made in France , it benefits from DMC quality and constant dyeing, guaranteeing uniform results throughout your work. The 8 meter format allows you to cover medium-sized patterns without interruption, which limits thread changes and streamlines your progress.

• Separate the strands if you are looking to refine the stitch or create gradients: the wool divides effortlessly, offering great flexibility of use.
• Use this wool in double strand on canvas 10 or in single strand on denser canvas to adapt the result to your project.
• Combine Aubergine 7147 with pearl grays or creams for a classic look, or with golden tones for a more autumnal atmosphere.
• Tie the thread firmly at the back of your work and finish with a stitch of 2-3 stitches for a lasting fixation without visible knot.
• Protect your finished work by sheltering it from direct light: dyed wool, even quality wool, can fade slightly over time.

For fans of cross stitch or tapestry, this wool goes naturally with Bohin or Prym embroidery needles in sizes 18 to 22, depending on your weaving. A quality embroidery canvas, with a suitable count, will harmoniously complement your creative palette.
