LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

For your canvas and tapestry work, this Colbert DMC wool offers a solid structure and generous coverage. The Daim 7520 color, a warm, slightly pinkish beige, harmonizes equally well with natural shades and with deeper accents. This 8 m skein in 100% wool allows you to cover large areas without excessive accumulation of material.

Made in France, this Colbert wool can be recognized by its tight twist and exceptional regularity. Composition: 100% wool . Length: 8 m per skein . Packaging: 1 skein . Colbert wool is worked without separation of strands, directly with the full thread, which guarantees a uniform rendering over the entire surface to be covered.

• Use a #18-20 canvas needle for Penelope canvas or standard weight embroidery canvas.
• Insert the needle from the back and come up to the front to avoid snagging the wool fibers when passing.
• Work with needles of 30 to 35 cm to preserve the wool and limit wear of the thread when passing repeatedly through the canvas.
• The Daim 7520 color creates a discreet background: ideal as a background to allow embroidery designs in more saturated colors to stand out.
• Clean your finished work in lukewarm water with a mild soap and leave to dry flat, away from any direct heat source.

Combine this wool with other Colbert DMC colors to create gradients and contrasts: the warm shades of the Colbert range complement each other naturally, while the addition of Mouliné Spécial for fine details allows for very precise finishes. Colbert DMC wool, produced in France for decades, remains an essential reference for demanding canvas makers and embroiderers.
