Description
light blue, grey, beige and lilac take turns — a gradient that arises without planning and still looks even. 200 m per spool, colour code 9980: printed so the mixture stays findable. The thread is dyed through, so these tones stay strong over many washes.
It also suits quilting seams and decorative topstitching wherever a seam should look lively. Mettler composes its multi versions in matched sequences. Within one spool the colours suit each other. Note the colour code with your project — the mixture cannot be described otherwise.
What Amann Mettler Poly Sheen Multi Summer Shimmers 200 m is suitable for
- area embroidery designs with a gradient
- appliqué on children's clothes
- borders and edgings
Sewing tips
- Bei der Multi-Variante den Farbwechsel im Motiv einplanen: Flächen wirken lebendig, feine Schrift dagegen unruhig.
- Oberfadenspannung lockerer stellen als beim Nähen.
- Dünnes Untergarn als Unterfaden verwenden.
- Ein Fadennetz über der Spule hält den Ablauf gleichmäßig.
- Bei dichten Motiven das Tempo drosseln, damit der Faden nicht heiß läuft.

Frequently asked questions
How may I wash the piece?
As its fabric allows. The polyester is colourfast and every tone on the spool is set the same way, so no section bleeds into another.
Can I combine it with a solid thread?
Yes, and often that is the better answer: the area multicoloured, the outline in one of its tones. Your design then reads lively and still stays clearly defined.
How far does one spool go?
That depends on your design. For several medium areas it goes a long way. If you plan a very large design, two spools with the same colour code keep the mixture identical.
What do I do when the thread breaks?
Slow down and loosen the top tension. A net over the spool keeps the feed calm. The thread is no weaker at colour transitions, so it does not break there more often.
