LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

DMC Colbert 486 tapestry wool is the essential ally for your canvas and canvas embroidery projects. This thick, structured yarn wraps stitches with confidence, providing dense, even coverage, particularly suited to small to medium-sized projects where every stitch must count.

Made of 100% wool, this 8 meter skein in duck blue color 7311 captures the deep nuances of still water. The shade oscillates between blue-green and dark indigo, ideal for creating contrast on light backgrounds or for structuring a marine gradient. French manufacturing : a guarantee of quality and regularity in each strand. This thread is easily worked with a tapestry needle on Aida canvas or Penelope canvas, without possible splitting since it is a single thread.

• Use 30 to 40 cm needles to avoid fraying and facilitate passage through dense stitches.
• Prefer an embroidery canvas with 11 points or 14 points per centimeter to enhance the fineness of the thread.
• Work full cross stitch or half stitches for subtle transparency effects.
• Combine duck blue 7311 with creamy whites or pearl grays for a sophisticated and calm look.
• Clean your items in cold water with a mild soap: wool does not tolerate hot water and aggressive products.

Combine this tapestry wool with complementary DMC Colbert threads in neutral shades or with classic tools: 22 or 24 tapestry needle depending on your canvas, drum to maintain tension, and storage case to preserve the color away from direct light.
