The tone Chocolate Brown belongs to the earth colours. Seams disappear into it on warm fabrics almost by themselves. 500 m, weight 100, colour number 1224: printed on the spool so the colour stays reorderable. For your bobbin the best pick is this same thread in this same colour.
Meant equally for clothing, bags and home textiles — this thread is tuned to the domestic machine rather than to a special case. Troja takes ordinary washing. Your seam does not lose its colour, however regularly the piece goes into the machine.
What Amann Troja Nähgarn Schokobraun is suitable for
- clothing from wovens and knits
- bags, pouches and cushion covers
- home textiles such as curtains and covers
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
What is the colour number for?
It is the identity of this colour. With it you reorder the same tone years later, while comparing by eye or on a screen almost always misses.
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.
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.
