LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

DMC Colbert tapestry wool offers a generous thickness for canvas and embroidery work on canvas. This Citron 7433 color, a bright and warm yellow, can be seen on the skein provided: a clean shade, without graying, perfect for flat areas of color or gradients with paler yellows. Work with a #18 to 20 canvas needle, depending on your canvas and tightening preference.

Composition: 100% wool . The 8 meter skein covers an average surface area depending on your stitch density. This wool combs easily and does not lint with use. Made in France, it benefits from DMC know-how recognized in embroidery for over a century. Dry clean or clean in cold water with mild soap, do not spin or tumble dry.

• Use two strands for fine details on a 10 point canvas, four strands for solid colors on 5 points.
• Combine this lemon with a creamy white or gray to create bright shades on a geometric or floral pattern.
• Wrap your needle in a thread clip to prevent the wool from fraying during embroidery.
• On a linen embroidery canvas, this bright yellow highlights the contours of the chain stitch or backstitch.
• Tip: keep needle lengths short, between 30 and 40 cm, to preserve the shine of the thread and limit premature wear.

Combine this color with other shades from the Colbert range — a deep blue, an olive green, a terracotta red — to create a harmonious palette. On a small cushion or framing project, Citron 7433 brings brightness without dominating the whole.
