What is this material

This overlock thread is made from polyester fibres and two-ply twisted, which gives you a strong, even thread with minimal lint. The low lint factor combined with high tensile strength makes this thread especially suitable for machines that run at high speed and put strong tension on the thread. The thickness no. 120 (40s/2) is a widely used standard size, fine enough for a neat finish yet strong enough to reinforce seams properly. The thread glides smoothly through the machine, which cuts down on thread breaks and friction during overlocking. These properties make it a dependable choice for both home sewers and workshops that use overlock machines daily.

Uses

Overlock Thread Light Grey 880 is designed for use on the serger machine, but you can put it to work across different sewing projects. Think about things like:

• Finishing seam edges on garments
• Overlocking knit and jersey fabrics
• Finishing hems on skirts, trousers and dresses
• Reinforcing seams on everyday wear
• Production sewing and batch work
• Finishing household textiles like sheets and duvet covers
• Pairing with contrasting fabrics thanks to the neutral grey shade
• Repairs and alterations where strong finishing is needed
