Description
This sewing thread is made for seams meant to give rather than break. It measures Ø 0.5 mm × 20 m. The pack holds 20 m. The material is 50 % elastane, 50 % polyamide.
The thread keeps what the pattern promises: for every seam there is a type that suits better than whatever sits on the machine right now. After sewing, let the seam rest before loading it — the material then settles evenly. Before the first metre, sew a test on a scrap: stitch length and tension matter more here than with a firm thread.
What Prym sewing thread 0,5 mm 20 m in Black is suitable for
- Gathering and smocking
- Cuffs and waistbands
- Repairs to clothing
Frequently asked questions
What stitch length should I use?
A rather long one, so the thread has room within the stitch. A test seam on a scrap answers length and tension faster than any table.
Does the colour have to match exactly?
On visible seams yes, on gathering underneath hardly at all. When in doubt pick the slightly darker tone, as it shows less than one too light.
How much do I need?
For gathering, considerably more than the finished length, because the material works within the stitch. Counting generously avoids joining mid-seam. A part-used remnant usually still covers cuffs on children's clothes.
Does it work with any sewing machine?
With most. What matters is adjustable tension and even feeding; a test seam shows both within two minutes. On older machines, check the manual for what the bobbin case allows.
