 DMC Tapestry Wool

DMC wool threads are exceptional in quality, making them a favourite for needle workers the world over. DMC tapestry wool is a soft, smooth non-divisible yarn made of 100% virgin wool. Its twist and thickness provide excellent canvas coverage with a smooth, even texture for your needlework projects.

And it’s made to last: DMC tapestry wool is both mothproof and colourfast, and endorsed by the Woolmark. The wool is combed and twilled which gives it an even finish.

Using DMC tapestry wool

DMC tapestry wool is available in two put-ups for your needlework needs.  An 8.7 yard pull-skein is available in an extraordinary palette of 390 colours.

DMC tapestry wool is normally worked on larger mesh canvas sizes 10 up to 14. DMC recommends working with lengths of yarn no longer than 18-20 inches—this prevents fraying and wearing down of the yarn while stitching. For areas of the same colour, particularly backgrounds, it is recommended to use skeins from the same dyelot.
