The tone Grass Green brings nature into a project. Beside wood, linen and earth shades it looks self-evident. Colour number 1146, weight 100, 500 m of yardage: the three figures that find this tone again later. On sturdy fabrics your stitch length may sit a little longer so the seam does not pucker.
Meant equally for clothing, bags and home textiles — this thread is tuned to the domestic machine rather than to a special case. Troja belongs to the threads you do not explain but simply use. It sits in almost every sewing box and sews most of what lands there.
What Amann Troja Nähgarn Grasgrün is suitable for
- repairs on existing seams
- patchwork and quilting
- children's clothes washed often
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 thread belongs on the bobbin?
This same thread in this same colour. Different tones above and below show along the seam as soon as your fabric moves. Only embroidery follows another rule.
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.
Does this thread fit every sewing machine?
In the usual domestic machines yes. The spool sits on the normal pin; with a vertical pin a felt disc underneath helps the thread feed evenly.
