• On a corduroy jacket, use this yarn to topstitch the collar: the oil shade comes off without cutting through.
• To attach a button to a thick fabric, leave some slack under the button before tightening.

Match it with wool or velvet in matching tones, with distressed metal buttons. Embroidery scissors allow you to cut the threads flush with the knot.
