LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

Are you looking for a rich, covered wool for your canvas or tapestry works? Colbert DMC Wool in bottle green 7348 offers a sophisticated depth of color, ideal for structuring a pattern or creating subtle gradients. This 8 m skein in 100% virgin wool can be worked on an embroidery canvas like on Penelope, with remarkable stitch hold.

Composition and use: 100% wool, Colbert is distinguished by its finesse and regularity. Unlike thicker wools, it can be handled effortlessly on small, regular stitches — satin stitch, backstitch, Algiers stitch. The thickness is calibrated for tight mesh canvases: an asset for miniatures as well as for generously sized mats. Made in France , it benefits from DMC's historic quality standards.

• On 18-point canvas, cover widely without overloading: the wool retains its shine without curling.
• Bottle green 7348 blends with blue-grays, warm browns and ivories for an elegant finish.
• Work with 40 cm needles: the wool remains supple and does not fray during use.
• For contour or accent stitches, separate a single strand if necessary: ​​Colbert wool untangles without resistance.
• At the end of your work, a simple brushing with lukewarm water revives the natural shine without weakening the fibers.

Combine this wool with complementary shades from the Colbert DMC range: pearl gray, deep black or rust gold give depth to the bottle green. For a more subtle composition, explore adjacent greens 7349 or 7347: three crossed skeins create a timeless marine gradient.
