LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

DMC Colbert tapestry wool offers a rich texture and a palette of shades perfect for your canvas and tapestry projects. The Beige 7452 color, a light and nuanced beige, goes harmoniously with classic embroidery canvases as well as modern canvases with more airy stitches. This 100% pure wool works easily on canvas and allows subtle gradients thanks to its numerous coordinated shades.

Composition: 100% wool. Length: 8 meters per skein. Origin: French manufacturing. This wool is distinguished by its fineness and regularity, ideal for precision work where uniform coverage of the canvas is paramount. When worked with a tapestry needle, it glides over the canvases without resistance.

• Apply Colbert wool to a slightly dampened canvas to make the needle easier to slide and prevent snags.
• Vary the needle lengths: 30 to 40 cm for large surfaces, 20 to 25 cm for details and contours.
• Combine Beige 7452 with pearl grays or ecru to create subtle gradients on neutral backgrounds.
• Work in regular, counted stitches to optimize coverage and avoid excess wool in certain areas.
• Store your skeins away from direct light to preserve the natural shine of beige.

To obtain a smooth and uniform surface, combine this beige with other colors from the Colbert DMC range: pearl grays create soft transitions, while off-whites provide clarity. A must-have in the tapestry box.
