LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

DMC Colbert 486 tapestry wool is the ideal thread for all your canvas and canvas embroidery projects. This 100% virgin wool yarn offers density and a natural shine that structures each stitch, from small patterns to large decorative panels. The color Melon 7852, a warm coral pink, brings a sunny note to delicate compositions and bold rugs.

Technical characteristics: this 8 meter spool in 100% wool can be worked on embroidery canvas or tapestry canvas. The natural fiber provides excellent coverage and is lint-free, unlike synthetic yarns. Made in France, it guarantees consistent quality and remarkable durability over time. The generous thickness of Colbert allows surfaces to be quickly filled without having to make multiple needle passes.

• Use a needle suitable for the canvas (n°18 to 22 depending on the stitch) for a smooth passage without pulling on the stitches.
• Work with lengths of 40 to 50 cm to preserve the regularity of the stitches and avoid fraying at the ends.
• Combine this Melon 7852 with neutrals like light gray or beige for a contemporary look, or on the contrary with darker pinks for a harmonious gradient.
• Test the effect on a small corner of your work before starting: the wool offers a very visible texture which enhances the stitch textures.
• Maintenance is done by dry cleaning or delicate washing in cold wool, without aggressive spinning.

Complete your palette with other shades from the Colbert DMC range to create consistent gradients. This wool also pairs beautifully with specialist DMC needles and high-quality embroidery canvases, creating long-lasting and tactile projects.
