About this range
Das Denim-Nähgarn von Gütermann ist auf Jeansstoffe abgestimmt: kräftiger als normales Nähgarn, in den typischen Gold- und Kupfertönen der Ziernaht, 100 Meter je Spule. Es hält die Zugkräfte aus, die an Hosennähten auftreten, und sieht als Steppnaht bewusst sichtbar aus.
Sewing tips
- Eine Jeansnadel der Stärke 90 bis 110 verwenden, sonst bricht sie an dicken Lagen.
- Für die Ziernaht das Denim-Garn als Oberfaden, unten normales Nähgarn in passender Farbe.
- Stichlänge auf drei bis dreieinhalb Millimeter stellen, das sieht an Jeans richtig aus.
- An dicken Stellen langsam nähen und notfalls das Handrad drehen.
- Fadenspannung etwas erhöhen, damit die Steppnaht straff liegt.
There are two distinct uses. As ordinary sewing thread it joins thick layers durably; as topstitching thread it runs visibly across pockets, hems and yokes and shapes the look of the finished piece.
For topstitching, the thread belongs in the needle only. Keep ordinary thread in the bobbin, or the seam turns too thick and the tension can no longer be set cleanly.
The needle has to match the thread weight. A denim needle in size 90 to 100 has a sufficiently large eye; with a fine needle the thick thread frays and breaks.
For visible seams a longer stitch is worthwhile. The typical denim look comes precisely from those clearly placed, long stitches.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need denim thread in the bobbin too?
No, quite the opposite. Use ordinary sewing thread in the bobbin, or the seam turns too thick and the tension can no longer be set properly.
Which needle suits denim thread?
A denim needle in size 90 to 100. Its eye is large enough for the thicker thread; a fine needle roughens it until it breaks mid seam.
How do I get the typical denim look?
Topstitching thread in the needle, a longer stitch and steady guiding. Those visible, long stitches are what set it apart from an invisible construction seam.
