LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

DMC Colbert 486 tapestry wool in Hemp 7501 color is a noble fiber intended for canvas and tapestry works. This natural beige tone, warm and timeless, harmonizes with a wide palette of shades to create subtle decors or controlled contrasts. Work with this 8 meter skein on medium embroidery canvas or regular stitch canvas.

Composition 100% virgin wool , carefully spun to provide perfect hold when working and a soft shine characteristic of the Colbert range. Produced in France , this wool meets DMC quality standards. The skein is easily measured and divided according to your needs for surface area or stitch density. Dry cleaning recommended to preserve fiber luster.

• Thread a tapestry needle no. 18 to 22 depending on your canvas and the desired stitch thickness.
• For dense areas, use the wool as is; for fine gradients, divide if necessary into finer strands.
• Maintain regular tension: Colbert wool glides well, but gains hold on a tightly woven canvas.
• Combine Hemp 7501 with pearl grays or terracotta for a natural look on floral tapestries.
• Store your skeins away from direct light to preserve the original color.

Complement this neutral shade with other Colbert DMC colors to create complex patterns: the beiges, grays and creams of the range create subtle shades ideal for filling large spaces or gradual gradients. An essential canvas box for those who love classic and timeless works.
