LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

DMC Colbert 486 Savane 7676 tapestry wool is your ally for demanding canvas projects. Work on regular canvas or embroidery canvas: this thick thread generously covers each stitch, creating uniform areas and subtle gradients. The 8 m skein is sufficient for medium-sized patterns or the outlines of a larger composition.

100% virgin wool , this material offers natural softness and remarkable hold in embroidery. Made in France , the Colbert benefits from DMC know-how. The color Savane 7676, a nuanced gold with earthy reflections , blends easily with warm tones and neutrals, giving depth without overwhelming your composition.

• Thread the needle with a short needle length — 30 to 40 cm — to preserve the loft and avoid fraying.
• Embroider in long or short stitches depending on your canvas count: the wool adapts its texture to your gesture.
• Slightly overlap the rows of points to create progressive gradients: the material lends itself naturally to this.
• Combine Savane 7676 with pearl grays or lighter ochres for a warm and sophisticated monochrome.
• Iron gently at low temperature after finishing: wool loves to be disciplined without being crushed.

Complete your canvas palette with shades of beige, ivory or gray to enrich your solid colors. Also remember to provide a Penelope or Etamine canvas adapted to your counting: the combination of thread and support determines the final quality of your work.
