DMC Tapestry Wool is a softly twisted, non-divisible yarn designed for needlepoint and tapestry stitching on canvas. In Colour 7479, each skein contains 8 m (8.7 yd) of combed, twilled 100% virgin wool that lays smoothly for even coverage on cushions, chair seats, wall hangings, and stitched accessories. Dry clean finished pieces to help preserve the wool’s look, and avoid routine washing so your stitches stay crisp and long-lasting.
