Features

This reel contains100 mofMercerized cotton. Mercerization is a treatment of the fiber that makes it smoother, shinier and more resistant, and helps it retain the hue well. The mentionNe 50corresponds to the English number of cotton: the higher this number, the finer the thread. It is sold by the piece.

Directions for use

• On a grey check or herringbone fabric, use this tone for topstitching: the thread is lost in the pattern.
• Choose a thread that is slightly darker than the fabric: a seam always looks a little lighter when sewn.
• Test a chute, folded in two thicknesses, before attacking the structure to adjust the tension.
• For a grey pant hem, pull up the needle one notch in stitch length to avoid gatherings.

Pair it with grey cotton canvas or washed linen, then with sober buttons to finish your clothes.
