Collection: Maraflex Stretch Thread- 150m

Sewing with Maraflex

• Sew knits on your sewing machine using a straight stitch. No need for zig zag stitches
• Maraflex gives you 80% stretch on knit fabric seams
• Stretches along with necklines and cuffs. Small openings such as necks and cuffs have more give when sewn with Maraflex.
• Helps make your seams pucker-free. The elasticity of Maraflex gives beautifully smooth seams, preventing unsightly puckering.
• Use a jersey/ballpoint or stretch needle in size 70-80.
• Works best with knits and
stretch fabrics. Gutermann recommend
that you use Maraflex with light to medium-weight knit fabrics such as jersey,
or light to medium-weight elastic woven fabrics, such as fabrics that contain
elastane
• Use as both needle and bobbin thread. For best results you should sew with as little thread tension as possible and use the Maraflex as both your top and bottom threads.
• You will get optimal seam elasticity with 4 stitches per centimeter.
