LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

DMC Colbert 486 tapestry wool is the ideal companion for your canvas projects, embroidery on embroidery canvas or small thick cross stitch projects. The Rosebud color 7605 offers a soft, delicate and timeless pink shade, perfect for floral patterns or pastel gradients on a white or cream background.

This 8 meter skein in 100% virgin wool can be worked on medium to fine count fabrics. Made in France , it benefits from the quality and consistency that DMC has guaranteed for decades. Colbert wool does not separate into strands: it is used as is, which makes it easier for embroiderers of all levels.

This wool is available in many shades, from pale pink to rosebud, through deep reds and neutral shades, which allows you to gradually build up a complete palette for your canvases and your fine embroidery projects.

• Work on 14-point Aida fabric or a classic canvas to let the fiber breathe and obtain regular stitches.
• Combine rosebud 7605 with pine greens or pearl grays for a graphic and modern floral pattern.
• Cut needles of 50 cm maximum to avoid fraying and preserve the softness of the wool.
• Wash your finished work in lukewarm water with a mild soap, then leave to dry flat: Colbert wool accepts gentle but regular maintenance.
• Keep your unused skeins away from moisture and direct light to preserve their vibrant color.

Complete this project with a Bohin or Prym tapestry needle suitable for canvas, and explore DMC edging threads to frame your designs with a neat finish.
