Composition and dimensions

Composition:Mercerized cotton. Dimension:100 mof yarn on the spool, sold by the piece. TitrationNe 50corresponds to a fine thread (the higher the number, the finer the thread), practical for discreet seams. Mercerisation, a treatment of cotton, gives it a slight luster that gives this flesh tone a luminous softness.

Our advice

• To sew a print, choose the dominant color of the pattern rather than the background: the seam will be forgotten.
• If you hesitate between two shades, take the darker one: a seam lighter than the fabric is more visible.
• For a rework on a light garment, pull the knot wrong side and embed the thread in the thickness of the fabric rather than cutting short.

Pair it with natural linen or cotton gauze, as well as wooden or mother-of-pearl buttons. A few thin pins will avoid marking light fabrics.
