LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

DMC Colbert 486 tapestry wool has established itself as the essential ally for embroiderers looking for a noble and durable material. The Peppered Pink color 7193 offers a subtle shade, between powder pink and gray shade, perfect for creating delicate gradients or structuring a pattern on canvas. This 8 m skein in 100% virgin wool can be worked with cross stitch, stem stitch or satin stitch, depending on the desired effect.

A premium wool made in France , DMC Colbert 486 benefits from a regular twist which prevents fraying during work. Its thick fibers generously cover the canvas , reducing the number of passes necessary to obtain uniform coverage. This natural density of the wool guarantees a soft and durable final result, particularly appreciated on furnishings or pieces intended for crochet.

• Easily separate 2 or 3 strands to adapt the result to your canvas and the finesse of your pattern.
• Choose needle lengths of 40 to 50 cm to prevent the fiber from fraying when passing through the fabric.
• Combine Peppered Rose 7193 with shades of pearl gray or beige for a timeless and harmonious monochrome.
• Colbert wool supports maintenance in cold water: clean your finished works by hand, without vigorous wringing.
• Perfect for small format pieces, a placemat, a book cover, or as an accent in a larger embroidery.

Combine this skein with a size 18 or 20 tapestry needle and an embroidery canvas with 10 or 12 threads per centimeter for a professional result. The shades of the Colbert range harmonize easily with each other, which allows you to compose subtle gradients or unexpected combinations in just a few elements.
