LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

For your tapestry and canvas projects, this Colbert 486 wool from DMC offers a rich texture and generous coverage. The Renne gray color 7337 is a nuanced gray with subtle reflections, perfect for creating gradients or structuring the backgrounds of your embroidery works.

Composition 100% virgin wool , this 8 meter skein can be worked in cross stitch, stem stitch or canvas depending on your project. French manufacturing guaranteeing consistent quality and a stable color when washing. The thickness of the wool allows rapid progress on canvas and medium weight embroidery fabrics, without requiring several passes to cover the stitches.

• Work with a No. 20 or 22 tapestry needle for an even, effortless finish on the thread.
• Combine Renne gray 7337 with black, anthracite or off-white for contrasting and graphic compositions.
• For relief embroidery, divide one or two strands if necessary in order to refine the details while maintaining the general density.
• Clean your items with lukewarm water and mild soap: virgin wool retains its natural shine and suppleness.
• Perfect for small textile surfaces, cushions, frames or finishing fashion pieces.

This DMC Colbert wool combines beautifully with Mouliné Spécial embroidery threads to add fine accents, or with other shades from the Colbert range to create sophisticated gradients. Traditional canvas embroiderers appreciate its regularity and its soft hand which makes long work easier.
