Fil pour surjeteuse Gütermann Toldi-Lock - 2 500 m - Gris - Anthracite - n° 9360

Are you looking for a thread to overcast dark fabrics without the seam being visible? Anthracite n°9360 is a very dark grey, more nuanced than black, which goes well with charcoal jerseys, raw denims and grey or black woollens.

Technical details

This Gütermann Toldi-Lock cone contains2,500 m of 100% polyester. Soundissue 120, printed on the label, indicates a thin thread: it gives a thin overlock stitch, useful on knits and cottons that roll up when cut. The long length is suitable for a shade that is often used.

Our advice

• Save it for dark fabrics: on a light fabric, an anthracite thread draws a visible line on the wrong side of the seam.
• On a rolling stockinette stitch, guide the fabric flat in front of the presser foot without stretching it: a drawn edge then undulates.
• For a collar or cuff, serge the two layers together before turning the piece over: the finish is cleaner than an overlock made after the fact.

Use a dark grey Gütermann polyester sewing thread for visible stitching. Add jersey needles for the stitches.
