LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

DMC Colbert 486 tapestry wool is the essential ally for your canvas and canvas embroidery projects. Glaise 7166, this earthy and warm shade, brings depth to projects without overloading the stitches. With its 8 meters, this skein is worked in complete strands, ideal for dense cross stitches or nuanced gradients on fine to medium canvas.

Made up of 100% virgin wool , this wool offers a natural shine and exemplary durability over time. Made in France , it benefits from recognized French textile know-how. The Glaise 7166 color has a slightly grayish pink-beige tone, perfect for creating soft harmonies or subtle contrasts depending on your palette.

• Work on Aida 11 or 14 canvas to obtain regular, balanced stitches without visual fatigue.
• Use needles of 40 to 50 cm to preserve the fiber and limit wear on the strand.
• Combine Glaise 7166 with warmer ochres or bluish grays to create natural and harmonious gradients.
• For the canvas, work in complete strands in satin stitch for solid areas, or divide slightly for fine details.
• Clean your finished work with cold, mild soapy water; wool holds up well to moderate washing.

Combine this wool with other Colbert DMC shades to create cohesive tonal compositions, or mix it with fine silk threads to add points of light to your canvas embroidery.
