Gütermann C Ne 50 Cotton Sewing Thread - 100 m - No. 1912

A very dark chocolate brown, almost black depending on the lighting: this Gütermann cotton sewing thread no. 1912 offers. It goes well with browns, softened blacks, khakis and leathers, when pure black seems too hard.

How to use it

• On a dark fabric, prefer a thread from your neighbour rather than a strong contrast: irregular stitches stand out much less.
• For a handmade buttonhole, work in a tight buttonhole stitch, keeping the thread tight.
• Before sewing, cut the ends of thread at an angle to make it easier to thread the eye of the needle.
• Stitching a belt or patch pocket, work slowly for perfectly straight lines.

Remember to combine it with a thick cotton canvas or a woollen sheet, and sharp sewing scissors.
