Gütermann Super Resistant Cording Wire - 30 m - No. 310

Ideal for simple topstitching on navy fabric, the Gütermann cord yarn no. 310 takes on a very dark, almost inky midnight blue that looks elegant on wool, cloth and raw jeans.

Technical characteristics

Thispolyester cord yarnMeasurement30 mand differs from a universal thread in its thickness: several strands are twisted together to obtain a clean, slightly raised topstitching. The term "cord" refers to this type of reinforced thread, which is used for decorative seams, buttonholes and buttons. With theColour No. 310, the stitching remains discreet in tone-on-tone, but it takes shape as soon as the light catches the strands.

Directions for use

• On wool or cloth, stitch 7 mm from the edge of a lapel: the topstitching structures without weighing it down.
• If the thread pulls on the seam, loosen the tension of the upper thread and lengthen the stitch.
• For a buttonhole by hand, pass the thread over a beeswax bar: it glides better and twists less.
• Choose a needle with an elongated eye to prevent the cord from fraying in the process.

Pair it with a navy blue wool sheet, jacket lining and horn buttons.
