LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

Are you working on a canvas and looking for a wool that is easy to use, regular and soft in the hand? DMC Colbert Tapestry Wool in Dove Gray 7618 offers a timeless shade, neither too light nor too dark, that complements almost any classic or contemporary canvas project.

This 100% virgin wool wool is characterized by its regular structure and its homogeneous thickness, ideal for filling the stitches of the canvas evenly. The 8 meter skein covers a generous surface area for a medium-sized pattern. Made in France, it benefits from traditional DMC know-how, a guarantee of stable color and durability over time. This wool supports dry cleaning and requires little special maintenance, unlike fragile dyed wools.

The dove gray color 7618 adapts equally well to geometric patterns and floral arrangements. You can use it alone for a sophisticated monochrome look, or combine it with lighter grays or warm tones to create subtle gradients.

• Work with needles of 60 to 80 cm to avoid fraying and preserve the softness of the yarn.
• On a 10 point/cm canvas, this skein fills approximately 30 to 40 cm² of full surface area.
• Combine dove gray with pearl grays or warm beiges for a natural and relaxing gradient.
• Try an alternation of dove gray in solid color and anthracite gray in shading to add relief to your composition.
• Dry cleaning recommended to preserve the brightness of the color and the softness of the fibers.

Combine this wool with other colors from the DMC Colbert range to create a cohesive palette. Light gray, taupe or graphite black shades form timeless combinations with dove gray, perfect for long-term projects that span the years.
