What is this material

This extra strong thread from Gütermann is comparable to classic iron thread, which used to be made from linen. Nowadays this type of thread is made from polyester, making it stronger and less prone to wear or rot than the original linen version. Thread weight no. 40 strikes a nice balance between strength and a neat, not-too-thick seam. Thanks to its smooth finish, the thread runs freely through your needle and machine without fraying or breaking. You'll notice the quality straight away from the even colour and tight winding on the spool.
