Composition and dimensions

This500m reel(approx. 547 yards) contains apolyester yarnuniversal,colour Indigo n° 810. Polyester provides a smooth thread that can be used in machine stitching as well as in hand sewing. A universal thread is chosen for its versatility: it adapts to common cottons, blends and synthetic fabrics. The saturated shade stands out clearly on light fabrics and blends with dark tones.

How to use it

• Stitch a pocket or collar in contrast over a grey, ecru or mustard yellow fabric for a graphic detail.
• For a more visible decorative yarn, double the stitching in a larger stitch length rather than thickening the yarn.
• On a dark plain fabric, indigo yarn goes almost unnoticed and serves as an alternative to black.
• Do a drop test before stitching to check the color rendering against the fabric.

Think of matching coloured buttons and a satin or cotton lining to play with contrasts in your bags and jackets.
