LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

For your tapestry and cross-stitch projects on canvas, DMC Colbert 486 wool offers a rich texture and unrivaled finish. Its thick, shiny fibers structure each stitch with elegance, ideal for filling durable projects that stand the test of time.

This wool 100% virgin wool comes in the form of a skein of 8 meters , intended for embroiderers looking for quality and finesse. Color Trellis Green 7382 offers a nuanced grassy hue, perfect for evoking foliage, natural backgrounds or plant accents. Made in France, this wool reflects DMC's historic know-how in embroidery threads and wools.

• Work the entire thread directly on a coarse or fine embroidery canvas, depending on the desired density.
• Pair Trellis Green 7382 with lighter greens to create subtle botanical gradients.
• Limit needle lengths to 30–40 cm to preserve shine and avoid fraying.
• Adapt your canvas according to the thickness: 10 points/cm canvas for an airy texture, 18 points/cm canvas for more finesse.
• Store away from direct light to maintain the natural shine of the wool.

Combine this wool with shades from the same range — Light green 7384, Dark green 7380 — or with pearl grays for a sober and elegant effect. For small details, also explore the DMC Mouliné embroidery threads which complement the Colbert textures on the same work.
