Overlock Thread Old Mauve (485) - 3000 Yards

Overlock Thread Old Mauve (485)

This cone shows a muted, dusty mauve shade that hovers somewhere between pink and brown, the exact colour you'll see in autumn collections and timeless basics. The first thing that strikes you about the photo is the smooth, even winding of the thread, with a fine sheen that signals quality yarn. The yellow cone core is standard for this type of industrial thread and doesn't affect the actual thread colour. Old Mauve is surprisingly versatile, pairing well with both warm and cool fabric tones, so you can use it across a wide range of projects.

What is this material

This overlock thread is made from finely twisted polyester fibres, two-ply wound into a strong and consistent thread. Because the yarn is low-lint and high-strength, your sewing machine or serger stays clean and the thread runs smoothly through the guides without catching or breaking. The smooth finish produces a neat, even stitch with no rough edges, even at high sewing speeds. This type of thread is widely used in the garment industry because of its reliable quality and long life on the cone.
