How to use it

• Use it as a bobbin thread under an off-white, beige or pearl grey fabric: the underside of the seam remains discreet.
• On a thin poplin, choose a small number needle to prevent the seam from gathering.
• When sewing by hand, do not pull more than 50 cm of thread at a time: beyond that, it becomes tangled and frayed.

For fine sewing, pair it with a cotton voile or batiste. Fine sewing needles and glass-headed pins complete the kit.
