LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

Cross stitch or stem stitch embroidery gains depth with this DMC Colbert tapestry wool. The Sienna Ocher color 7178 brings a natural warmth to canvas works: a nuanced reddish-brown that interacts equally well with light ochres and chocolate tones. This 8 m skein in 100% wool offers a soft and supple material, perfect for regular stitches on embroidery canvas.

Composition and origin: 100% virgin wool, made in France. Length: 8 m per skein. Use: cross stitch, stem stitch, canvas, embroidery on canvas. Needle compatibility depending on the density of the canvas (needles 18 to 22 for classic canvas).

A wool of French origin that honors the heritage of French canvas. The fineness of the thread allows for clear details without overloading the canvas, while its light structure limits the wear of the fibers during repeated passes.

• Work in needles of 40 to 50 cm to preserve the integrity of the fibers and avoid lint.
• On 5 or 6 points per cm canvas, this length covers a medium-sized pattern in a continuous solid color.
• Combine Sienna Ocher 7178 with taupe grays or creams for subtle gradients that restore volumes.
• Pre-wash your finished item in lukewarm soapy water before ironing, as wool does not tolerate aggressive treatments.
• This color harmonizes perfectly with botanical motifs or period ornaments: don't hesitate to use it for textile reconstructions.

Complete your palette with off-whites or bright greens to create discreet contrasts. A wool made in France to keep on hand for all canvases that require warmth and delicacy.
