LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

DMC Colbert 486 tapestry wool is the essential ally for your canvas and canvas embroidery projects. Teddy 7455, this warm beige shade with natural reflections, soothes compositions while creating delicate backgrounds or subtle gradients on regular embroidery canvas.

This 8 meter skein in 100% virgin wool offers exceptional knitwear. Particularly dense and structured, it is easily needlepointed to cover the canvas stitches in one or two passes depending on the desired thickness. Colbert wool is dry cleanable and retains its natural shine for a long time without pilling. Produced in France , it benefits from recognized textile know-how.

DMC Colbert tapestry wool is available in many harmonized colors, allowing nuanced compositions and fluid gradients.

• Work with a size 18 to 22 canvas needle depending on your canvas and the desired effect.
• For optimal coverage on 10 or 12 point canvas, divide the skein into three parts: this fineness makes it easier to insert into the stitch.
• Combine Teddy 7455 with pearl grays or off-whites for a calm classicism, or with warm ochres for a subtle contrast.
• Keep your balls away from direct light: natural wool may vary slightly under UV rays.
• Ideal for small floral patterns, initials or canvas cushion backgrounds, it is sufficient for a medium-sized pattern without using several skeins.

Combine this wool with professional quality canvas fabrics and Bohin canvas needles: the finesse of Colbert wool is fully expressed on a well-stretched canvas and with suitable tools.
