Description
The tone Cognac belongs to the earth colours. Seams disappear into it on warm fabrics almost by themselves. This spool carries 400 m of thread at weight 40. Note colour code 1657 with your project. Because polyester takes up hardly any moisture, this thread stays supple even in damp rooms.
Polyneon is built as a machine embroidery thread: it copes with high stitch counts and runs calmly through the needle. Madeira makes Polyneon to a constant quality. Buy a spool again and you get the tone you got the first time. Note the colour code with your project straight away, then you will find this tone again.
What Madeira Polyneon Embroidery Thread 400 m Cognac is suitable for
- designs on swimwear and workwear
- monograms and lettering
- labelling bags and gym sacks
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
Do I need stabiliser?
Almost always. Stabiliser holds your fabric steady in the hoop so a design does not distort. Tear-away suits wovens, cut-away suits stretch, water-soluble suits terry.
How far does one spool go?
It depends on your design: a monogram needs a few metres, a densely stitched area many times more. For recurring designs in one colour the larger spool pays off.
May I iron over the embroidery?
Best from the reverse and with a cloth between. Polyester takes heat, but direct heat flattens the stitches and robs a design of its relief.
Which colour suits which fabric?
Dark tones work on light ground, light tones on dark. When unsure, lay the thread on the fabric before stitching — on a screen every colour looks different than in your hand.
