LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

For your tapestry and canvas projects, Colbert DMC 486 Wool offers a generous and easy-to-work material. This thick yarn in 100% virgin wool is distinguished by its French manufacturing, a guarantee of quality and regularity. The Feu 7947 color displays a vibrant, warm and luminous orange, ideal for creating areas of depth or energetic accents on your works.

Composition and technical characteristics: This 8 meter skein in pure wool is easily worked with a tapestry needle on embroidery canvas or canvas. The thick fiber quickly covers surfaces, limiting tedious back and forth movements. Made in France, it benefits from DMC quality standards and a color that is stable to light. Wool naturally offers volume and a slight shine which enriches the shades.

• Suitable for needles no. 18 to 22 depending on the density of your canvas, for regular and tight stitches.
• Ideal for shading: combine two to three similar shades to create fluid and natural gradients.
• Perfect for small designs: 8 meters are enough to cover the details of a small painting or a decorated strip.
• Work in short needles (30 to 35 cm) to prevent the fiber from fraying or thickening at the ends.
• Wool can be cleaned with warm, soapy water; let dry flat to preserve the shape of your works.

Combine Feu 7947 with off-whites, beige grays or ochres to create an autumnal or marine palette. In combination with slate blues, this orange creates harmonious contrasts that structure the eye. For lovers of classic tapestry, this color completes the red and burgundy series by bringing a more modern note.
