LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

Ideal for structuring your tapestry and canvas works, this Colbert wool thread offers remarkable strength and perfect stitch hold. The Verde absinthe 7584 color provides a nuanced green, slightly bluish tint, which goes well with neutral backgrounds as well as multi-colored compositions. This 8 m skein in 100% wool offers the warm texture characteristic of the Colbert range, recognized for its quality and French manufacturing.

Composition and specifications: 100% virgin wool, 8 meter skein. This thread can be worked on canvas or embroidery canvas, with needles of a size suitable for counting your base. Colbert wool can be cleaned gently in lukewarm water, without vigorous wringing. French manufacturing, DMC production.

Vert absinthe 7584 is available in independent skeins, allowing you to assemble several shades to create subtle gradients or to gradually build up your palette of shades.

• Work with short needles of 30 to 40 cm to avoid fraying and maintain the uniformity of the thread.
• For a dense solid color, double the passages; for a pointillist effect, space your points slightly.
• Pair this shade with lighter greens or ochres to create natural gradient foliage.
• In coarse grain canvas, a skein covers approximately 50 to 60 cm² depending on the density of your work.
• Test the wash on a small sample if you are composing a part intended for regular maintenance.

Combine this absinthe green with cream or ivory wool threads for the contours, and warm browns for the shadows. On dotted paper or fine Aida canvas, combine it with ocher and beige tones for harmonious floral or foliage patterns.
