Description
This sewing thread is made for seams meant to give rather than break. The size comes to 200 m. Inside the pack are 200 m. Made from 100 % polyamide.
For gathering and smocking, elastic thread is the means by which fullness is eased in evenly. 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. Anyone sewing regularly likes to keep such notions in duplicate.
What Prym sewing thread 70 200m in Transparent is suitable for
- Cuffs and waistbands
- Repairs to clothing
- Sewing knitted fabrics
Frequently asked questions
How do I wind elastic material?
By hand and without tension. Winding by machine inevitably stretches it, and the finished seam draws up later as soon as the tension relaxes. Counting while winding tells you later how far the supply will go.
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 long does the material last?
Stored dry and dark, many years. What has lain at a window for years turns brittle and snaps when stretched — noticed only once the seam is already in place.
