LAINE COLBERT DMC 1 ECH 8M

La lana para tapiz DMC Colbert 486 es el aliado imprescindible para tus proyectos de bordado en lienzo y lienzo. This old gold 7783, a warm shade with slightly patinated golden reflections, brings depth and elegance to each point. Work this wool in generous flat areas or subtle gradients: its 4-strand structure allows great versatility of execution.

100% lana virgen , esta madeja de 8 metros fue confeccionada en Francia , garantizando una calidad de hilado y teñido impecable. Colbert wool is characterized by its smooth and regular appearance, ideal for both counted stitches and gradients. Work with a needle appropriate for your canvas: a Pénélope 10 or 12 for standard canvases, a finer one for tight canvases. This wool offers good coverage and does not pill, even with repeated handling of dense embroidery.

• Separate the 4 strands to adapt the thickness to your canvas count: 2 or 3 strands for fine details, 4 for full surfaces.
• Work with needles of 45 to 50 cm to avoid premature wear of the fiber.
• Compose gradients by alternating old gold 7783 with lighter beiges or ochres for a material effect.
• Use this shade as a border or as an accent on works in neutral shades: it provides structure without being overwhelming.
• Maintenance is done with warm soapy water, then dried flat; Evite centrifugar y secar en secadora.

Combine this old gold 7783 with pearl grays or sage greens for a harmonious ensemble of timeless style. On a canvas with small floral patterns, this wool creates rich flat areas which give relief to the entire work. A classic of French embroidery that every designer should have in their workshop.
