LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

DMC Colbert tapestry wool offers a chromatic palette inspired by Latin American landscapes. The Urubamba Valley 723 color, a soft, slightly gray green, captures the delicacy of Andean vegetation. This wool is intended for canvas and tapestry, as well as embroidery on aida or linen for large projects.

Each skein contains 8 meters of yarn in 100% virgin wool , workable with both hook and needle. The fiber is manufactured in France , guaranteeing consistent quality and controlled sourcing. The fineness of Colbert 486 wool allows surfaces to be covered quickly while maintaining a soft and regular texture.

This color naturally combines with earthy browns, cool grays and stronger greens to create harmonious gradients. Alone or mixed with other shades from the Colbert range, it enriches embroidered landscapes and botanical details.

• Separate two strands for fine contours and delicate details on 18-point canvas.
• Use the entire thread to quickly cover solid areas on 10-point canvas.
• Test on 12-thread linen canvas to obtain a less dense and more airy result.
• Mix it with a mouse gray or taupe to create natural shadows.
• Store the skeins away from light to preserve the shine of the green.

Complete your work with Colbert wools in complementary tones: the olive and dark greens from the same collection structure the foliage, while the natural beiges accentuate the depth. Combined with a sturdy canvas, it guarantees long-lasting and luminous embroidery.
