Fil pour surjeteuse Gütermann Toldi-Lock - 2 500 m - Marron - Kaki - n° 8790

A true ally of utilitarian fabrics, this khaki overlock yarn n°8790 fades into cotton canvases, gabardine and twill. Its muted shade, between green-grey and sand, avoids the effect of contrast. It leaves the inside of jackets, trousers and bags neat and sober.

Composition and dimensions

Composition:100% polyester. Dimensions:2,500 mon a single Gütermann Toldi-Lock cone. Theissue 120printed on the label refers to a fine thread. On a tight cotton canvas, it prevents the edges from puffing up, and the serging stays flat in areas that rub, such as pockets or the belt.

Our advice

• Choose a thread that is only slightly darker than the fabric: on the seam, the colour always appears lighter than on the cone.
• On a stretchy fabric, pull on an overlocked scrap: if the threads break, loosen the tension before moving on to the garment.
• Serge the pocket pieces before folding and stitching them: the inside stays clean without adding bias.

Combine it with a close-tone Gütermann polyester sewing thread for stitching. For a utility jacket, add shank buttons or rivets.
