LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

A true ally of embroiderers and upholsterers, this Colbert 486 wool offers a wealth of nuances for your canvas or cross-stitch works. The Celery Green 7420 color, a soft and natural shade, soothes the most refined compositions while bringing a discreet touch of greenery to floral or botanical patterns. Made in France, it embodies the tradition of quality spinning mills.

100% virgin wool , this 8 m skein is easy to work with a tapestry needle. The thickness of the fiber, designed for canvas, ensures uniform coverage and remarkable durability over the years. Each row lays effortlessly, lint-free, snag-free on medium to heavy count canvases.

Available in coordinated colors within the Colbert range, Celery Green 7420 naturally combines with other greens – fir, lime, olive – to create subtle gradients or delicate geometric patterns.

• Measure your canvas before starting: an 8 m skein covers approximately 10 to 12 cm² depending on the density of your canvas.
• Use tapestry needles size 18 to 22 depending on your canvas, without ever rubbing the thread on the previous stitches.
• For a gradual gradient, alternate Celery Green 7420 with lighter or darker threads from the same color family.
• Keep your skeins away from direct light: virgin wool stays bright for a long time if it is protected from UV rays.
• Block your finished work with steam or lukewarm water to fix the final shape of your tapestry.

Combine this wool with the neutral shades of the range — pearl gray, beige, black — for a timeless look. Embroiderers often look for this harmony between a generous main shade and more restrained touches of color. Celery Green 7420 fulfills this role with elegance.
