LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

For your tapestry and canvas projects, this skein of DMC Colbert 486 wool in orange 7740 offers a warm and radiant shade. Bright orange captures the light on the fabrics to be embroidered, bringing contrast and life to figurative and geometric compositions.

Composition 100% wool , this 8 meter tapestry wool can be worked on regular weft canvas and embroidery canvas. French manufacturing : a guarantee of quality and textile tradition. The fiber, supple and shiny, is easily separated into two or four strands depending on the desired fineness and the scale of the pattern. It can be cleaned dry or by delicate cold washing, without vigorous spinning.

Available in a single color: orange 7740, this warm shade is naturally available across the entire Colbert DMC range, allowing for subtle gradients with neighboring reds and yellows.

• Adapt the number of strands to the density of your canvas: two or three strands for a thin canvas, four or five for a thick linen cross stitch.
• Work with needles of 40 to 50 cm to avoid fraying and loss of shine.
• On a Penelope 10 canvas, this wool creates dense and uniform tapestry stitches without leaving gaps.
• Combine it with tones of ocher, terracotta or gold for a warm and harmonious composition.
• Store the skein in a dry place and away from direct light to preserve the shine of the color.

Complete your palette with a tapestry needle calibrated 20 or 22, and explore regular weft canvases or Aida canvases to express all the depth of this luminous orange. Colbert DMC wool, French work for generations, guarantees the colorimetric consistency of your creative projects.
