LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

Tapestry on canvas requires wool with regular and shiny fibers: Laine Colbert from DMC meets these requirements perfectly. Spun and dyed in France, it offers exceptional hold on canvas, whether thin or medium-sized. The Light Oak 7411 color captures the soft nuances of light woods, perfect for natural backgrounds or interior landscape details.

100% virgin wool , this noble material is worked with a needle appropriate to the canvas you have chosen. The 8 meter skein generously covers an average surface in cross stitch or traditional tapestry stitch. French production guarantees consistent quality and a color that is stable to light.

• Lightly steam your work after finishing to fix the stitches and soften the texture.
• Work with needles of 40 cm maximum: the wool frays less and the thread retains its shine.
• Combine this natural beige with terracotta browns or grays for a warm gradient on landscapes or borders.
• Clean your finished work in cold soapy water, without spinning: virgin wool does not tolerate aggressive washing.
• Use this color as a background to bring out darker patterns or in regular flat areas for structured interiors.

Combine this wool with skeins of darker shades – chestnut, bronze – or pearl grays to create natural shading effects. On a regular raw canvas, Light Oak 7411 reveals all its discreet warmth.
