LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

DMC Colbert 486 tapestry wool is the essential ally for your canvas and canvas embroidery projects. With its Squirrel 7175 color, this wool offers a warm shade, a slightly coppery pinkish beige which enriches the works with nuance and depth. Whether you are darning on Penelope canvas or working in cross stitch on embroidery canvas, this thick and regular thread unfolds with a beautiful presence.

100% virgin wool , this 8 meter skein can be used without separation: you work directly with the full thread, which gives the stitches a solid and uniform structure. Made in France , it meets DMC quality standards recognized in traditional embroidery and canvas. Its slightly thick diameter makes it ideal for medium to low count embroidery canvases.

• Work in lengths of 40 to 50 cm to limit fraying and preserve the shine of the thread.
• On Penelope canvas in 7 or 8 threads, this Colbert 486 fills the holes with a generous presence, without passing through.
• Create gradients by combining Écureuil 7175 with lighter beiges (7739) or terracotta tones (7372) for subtle variations.
• Dry cleaning recommended or washing in cold soapy water, without wringing: virgin wool likes softness.
• Store away from direct light to preserve the warmth of the color.

Combine this wool with Zweigart canvas or dense Aida canvas for miniature tapestry or reinforced applique projects. Embroiderers who appreciate virgin wool for its hold and soft hand will find the authentic character of DMC shades, timeless and easy to match with other thread ranges.
