Description

A shade that looks good on denim, white and grey alike. Sulky calls the shade “Bright Navy Blue”, colour number 1042.

The thread is made of viscose and therefore has a warm, silky shine. It does not lint, does not shrink, is boil-proof and colourfast. Because viscose stretches less than polyester, the thread runs smoothly in the embroidery machine and the stitches lie evenly. At weight 40 it suits the usual embroidery programmes and decorative stitches.

Tip: with a fine to medium embroidery needle and slightly looser top tension, the stitches come out cleanest.

What Sulky Rayon 40 Tintenblau is suitable for

  • fine outlines and details
  • area fill stitches where the sheen pays off
  • lettering and monograms with a sheen

Sewing tips

  • Nadelstärke NM 75–80 verwenden, Universal-, Top-Stitch- oder Sticknadel.
  • Die Oberfadenspannung beim Sticken etwas lockerer stellen als beim Nähen.
  • Als Unterfaden ein dünnes Untergarn nehmen; ist die Rückseite sichtbar, passt auch Rayon 40 selbst.
  • Die Zierstiche der meisten Nähmaschinen sind auf ein Garn der Stärke 40 ausgelegt.
  • Stickvlies passend zum Stoff wählen, damit sich das Motiv nicht wellt.
  • Farbnummer notieren, dann lässt sich dieselbe Farbe später eindeutig nachbestellen.

Matching colour code 1042

Frequently asked questions

Can I use Rayon 40 on a sewing machine too?

Yes, the decorative stitches of most sewing machines are set up for a weight 40 thread. The thread also works well for free-motion quilting and for rolled hems on the overlocker.

Which bobbin thread should I use?

For most projects a fine bobbin thread in light or dark to match the fabric. If the reverse stays visible, for example on scarves, Rayon 40 itself can run in the bobbin too.

Is viscose embroidery thread washable?

Yes, Rayon 40 is boil-proof and colourfast. Embroidered pieces can be washed normally, including towels and children's clothes. Avoid bleach, though, as it attacks the colour.

How should I store the spools?

Upright, dry and out of direct sunlight. Dust on the thread carries lint into the machine, so a closed box is the simplest answer for a larger thread collection.
