LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

For a canvas that exudes finesse and depth, Colbert DMC 486 wool, gray green color 7294, is your ally. This 8 m skein in 100% virgin wool offers a subtle palette, ideal for flat areas as well as delicate gradients on embroidery canvas. Spun and dyed in France, it guarantees constant quality and exceptional durability over time.

The Colbert DMC wool is characterized by its regular thickness and its light-stable color . Made of 100% wool , it does not fray and slides easily under the needle. Gray Green colorway 7294 captures a sophisticated shade, neither quite gray nor quite green, that pairs equally well with cool tones and warm neutrals. Made in France , this wool reflects French know-how in textile dyeing.

• Work with a needle suitable for the canvas (n° 18 to 22) with needles of a moderate length to preserve the natural shine.
• Green gray 7294 enhances autumn skies or foliage in perspective on canvas landscapes.
• Combine it with petrol blue or fly brown for a very refined marine or forest effect.
• Clean dry or in cold water with mild soap, without vigorous wringing, to preserve the structure of the fiber.
• Eight meters cover a medium to large sized pattern: thrifty and generous at the same time.

Combine this wool with other Colbert DMC colors to create progressive shading. It goes particularly well with the pearl grays, taupes and blue-grays of the range, allowing nuanced and elegant compositions. On a cross-stitch or skewer canvas, it structures the whole without dominating.
