LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

Ideal for traditional tapestry stitches or small canvas work, this skein of Colbert DMC wool offers a soft and timeless shade. The Cendre de rose 7244 color soothes compositions in cold shades, particularly appreciated in gradient with pearl grays or deep blues. A true ally of the embroiderer, it slips easily into the needle and does not ball up with use.

Made up of 100% virgin wool , this tapestry wool benefits from French manufacturing which guarantees consistent quality. The 8 meter skein easily covers an average surface on a regular canvas. The fineness of the strands allows for clean and regular stitches, whether you are working with cross stitch, half stitch or back stitch. Its soft, slightly glossy feel gives relief to small works.

• Separate a single strand for fine details and sharp edges on close-knit canvas.
• On a canvas with large holes, work with the full strand for a vigorous and well-covered stitch.
• Degrade Cendre de rose 7244 with its gray and lilac neighbors for very natural progressive shading.
• Keep the leftovers: these short pieces are ideally combined for free embroidery or applique on natural fabrics.
• Gentle wash in cold water recommended: never put in the washing machine, dry flat preferably.

Combine this shade with fine embroidery needles (n° 18 to 22) to maintain the regularity of your stitches. An essential for the canvas workshop which requires little investment and supports each project over time.
