LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

DMC Colbert 486 tapestry wool has established itself as the essential ally for embroidery on canvas and traditional tapestry. Work with confidence on embroidery canvas or small to medium count canvas: this wool allows regular stitches and covers the canvas perfectly in one or two passes depending on the desired thickness.

Made of 100% wool , this skein of 8 meters in color Brown 7303 offers a rich and deep shade, suitable for structured backgrounds, natural gradients and forest patterns. Brown 7303 pairs particularly well with fir greens, ochres and taupe grays to create earthy harmonies. Product made in France , it guarantees constant quality and reliable supply.

• Wrap the skein around your finger or a small tube to easily measure it over the rows without waste.
• On Pénélope 10 canvas, this wool is worked with a size 20 or 22 needle for a regular and dense finish.
• Combine several strips of brown 7303 in gradient with lighter strands to sculpt the reliefs of a floral or landscape motif.
• Wash the finished item in cold soapy water and leave to dry flat: the wool retains its shine without felting.
• Build up a stock of brown 7303 in batches of two or three skeins to cover large areas without interruption.

Combine this wool with the pearl gray and light beige colors from the same DMC Colbert range for subtle shades, or with navy blue and dark ocher for marked contrasts. An essential for your tapestry workshop.
