LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

DMC Colbert 486 tapestry wool is the natural choice for embroiderers looking for a noble material that is easy to work with. Tabac 7488 offers a warm, slightly muted hue that pairs elegantly with neutral tones as well as more saturated shades. This 8 meter skein in 100% wool allows you to cover generous surfaces without excessive thickness.

French manufacturing : each skein comes from the DMC workshops. The structure of this Colbert wool is characterized by its regularity and softness to the touch. 100% wool composition offers natural toughness and a discreet shine that catches the light without dazzling. The thread does not fluff excessively while working, making it easier to produce clean stitches.

Tabac 7488 is ideal for medium to fine counting canvases, traditional tapestries and fine art embroidery. You can use it in complete strands or separate it slightly to adapt the thickness to your work.

• Work with needles of 30 to 40 cm to preserve the integrity of the thread and limit felting.
• Combine this tobacco with pearl grays or beiges to create subtle gradients.
• Ideal for discreet floral designs or structured backgrounds.
• Clean your finished item with warm soapy water and let it dry flat: wool does not tolerate direct ironing.
• Combine it with finer DMC threads to vary the textures and create relief.

Complete your palette with complementary shades in Colbert wool or pair with more delicate embroidery threads for textural contrasts. This skein will find its place in your large canvas projects as well as in the details of mixed pieces.
