The tone Golden Yellow brings warmth into a project. On grey, denim and natural shades it reads as an especially clear contrast. Weight 100 and 500 m: the standard figures for sewing thread on a domestic machine. Note colour number 0118. Part-used spools keep their tone longest when stored upright and in the dark.
For assembling as much as for topstitching: at weight 100 your seam lies flat and adds no bulk. The spools are cleanly wound and feed without loops. That sounds minor but decides how calm your sewing goes.
What Amann Troja Nähgarn Goldgelb is suitable for
- bags, pouches and cushion covers
- topstitching meant to lie flat
- buttonholes on a domestic machine
Sewing tips
- Stärke 100 passt zu Universalnadeln der Stärken 70 bis 90.
- Ober- und Unterfaden in derselben Farbe nehmen, sonst blitzt der Unterfaden an der Naht durch.
- Bei dehnbaren Stoffen einen elastischen Stich wählen — das Garn selbst dehnt sich nicht.
- Angebrochene Spulen stehend und dunkel lagern, dann bleibt die Farbe frisch.
- Farbnummer zum Projekt notieren; nach Augenmaß trifft man den Ton selten wieder.

Frequently asked questions
Which needle suits this thread?
A universal needle in a medium size matches weight 100. For jersey take a ballpoint needle, for denim a jeans needle — the thread stays the same in both cases.
Can I use this thread on an overlocker?
Better not. Overlock thread is softer and finer so the edge adds no bulk, and it comes on larger cones. Sewing thread runs restlessly in an overlocker and builds bulk.
May I iron over the seam?
Yes, at the temperature your fabric allows. The thread takes ordinary ironing heat; caution belongs with delicate fabrics rather than with the thread itself.
Is the spool sold singly?
Yes, every spool is available on its own. That lets you top up one tone instead of buying a whole assortment of which half sits unused in the box.
