The tone Mango carries warmth. On denim, grey and brown it makes a contrast that never feels harsh. With 400 m on the spool and weight 40 this thread fits any embroidery machine. The colour code is 1678. This tone is lightfast, which makes the difference on pieces by a window.
On dark fabrics the sheen comes fully into its own — a design then lifts away in the light as well as in colour. The spools are cleanly wound and feed without loops — that decides how calm your stitching goes more than any setting.
What Madeira Polyneon Mango is suitable for
- designs on swimwear and workwear
- area fill stitches where the sheen pays off
- appliqué on children's clothes
Sewing tips
- Die Oberfadenspannung beim Sticken lockerer stellen als beim Nähen.
- Ein dünnes Untergarn als Unterfaden nehmen, nicht dasselbe Polyneon.
- Ein Fadennetz über der Spule verhindert, dass sich der Faden in Schlaufen legt.
- Nadelstärke 75 oder 80 mit Stickspitze reicht für die meisten Stoffe.
- Bei dichten Motiven langsamer sticken, sonst erhitzt der Faden und reißt.
- Die Farbnummer ist die Identität des Tons — sie gehört ins Projektheft.

Frequently asked questions
What does chlorine-proof mean?
The thread does not lose its colour on contact with chlorinated water or chlorine-based cleaners. For beach towels, swimwear and workwear that is the decisive difference from plain embroidery thread.
How may I wash the finished piece?
As its fabric allows. The thread is boil-proof and chlorine-proof, so it sets no limit on temperature. That limit comes from the material you stitched on.
Which colour should the bobbin thread be?
White under light fabrics, black under dark ones. On sheer material a look from the right side before stitching pays off — the wrong bobbin thread shimmers through a design.
Is the spool sold singly?
Yes, every spool is available on its own. That lets you restock one tone instead of ordering an assortment of which half stays unused in your box.
