LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

For a canvas or tapestry with natural shades, this Colbert DMC wool offers a subtle and timeless shade. Almond Green 7326 comes in a soft, slightly grayed tone, ideal for delicate backgrounds or half-tone details. Made in France, this skein offers textile quality recognized for its pointillist or regular stitch creations.

This skein of DMC Colbert tapestry wool is distinguished by its composition 100% wool and its length of 8 meters , sufficient to cover medium-sized areas of a canvas work. The wool is easy to work with a tapestry needle and does not lint during embroidery, which makes it very popular with expert embroiderers. French manufacturing guaranteeing traceability and consistent quality.

The almond green color 7326 naturally combines with wood tones — ochres, beiges, chestnut browns — to create harmonious palettes. Work it in a complete solid color or explore satin stitches and cross stitches to play with material effects.

• Thread the needle with a length of approximately 50 cm to prevent the thread from becoming weakened during repeated passage.
• Allow two to three passes for a uniform finish and good coverage of the canvas without overloading.
• Test the color on a sample point in the corner of your canvas: daylight can slightly modify the perception of this nuanced shade.
• Combine this almond green with pearl grays or off-whites for a subtle gradient rendering on a fine canvas.
• Store your skein away from direct light and humidity to preserve the shine of the wool fiber.

Complete your tapestry work by combining this almond green with threads of complementary colors: light ocher for the transitions, dove gray for the shadows, or natural white for the lights. Colbert DMC wool blends harmoniously with tapestry needles sizes 18 to 22, depending on the density of your canvas.
