LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

DMC Colbert 486 tapestry wool is the reference thread for all your canvas and embroidery projects on coarse canvas. Grotte marine 7926, a deep blue-green with slightly gray undertones, brings structure and depth to your projects without overloading the stitches. This navy shade goes particularly well with neutral tones and other blues to create subtle gradients.

Composition and technical characteristics : this 8 m skein is woven from 100% virgin wool , spun with the characteristic fineness of the Colbert range. Made in France , it benefits from remarkable dye strength and a soft touch which facilitates passage through the stitches of the canvas. The regular diameter ensures even coverage, without constant tension adjustment.

• Thread your tapestry needle with 1 m of thread at a time to avoid fraying and premature wear.
• Work on embroidery canvas with 18 or 22 stitches per cm: the thread covers generously without creating bulges.
• Combine Sea Cave 7926 with pearl grays or lighter blues for a natural marine gradient.
• Clean your items with lukewarm water and mild soap, then leave to dry flat: Colbert wool does not shrink if you respect this finish.
• Create a reserve of several skeins of the same dye bath to guarantee color homogeneity on large surfaces.

To complete your canvas palette, combine this shade with other colors from the Colbert range or with Bohin brand tapestry needles, which glide perfectly through the wool without fraying it. An essential for embroiderers looking for wool with marine and natural shades.
