Overlock Thread Pastel Lilac (726) - 3000 Yards

Overlock Thread Pastel Lilac (726)

This cone spool shows a soft, powdery lilac tint that looks calm yet has that little bit of playfulness. The thread sits tight and evenly wound on the spool, which already hints at how smooth and lint-free this overlock thread works. The pastel colour pairs nicely with light fabrics like cotton, knit and fine wovens, and is excellent for projects where you want a subtle, refined finish.

What is this material

This overlock thread is made from polyester and is two-ply twisted, meaning two threads are tightly twisted together into one thread. This construction creates thread that is strong while staying supple during sewing. Thanks to the low lint output and high tensile strength, the thread glides smoothly through the loop of your overlock machine without clogging it with thread residue. Thickness no. 120 (40s/2) is a popular size because it is both fine enough for light fabrics and strong enough for heavier use. It is thread that you can use year-round, regardless of season or project type.

Applications

This Pastel Lilac overlock thread is particularly suited for work on the overlock machine or serger, and works for a wide range of sewing projects. Think of:

• Finishing seam edges on garments
• Overlocking knit and jersey fabrics
• Hemming on light dresses and blouses
• Processing bedding and household textiles
• Children's clothing and baby items in pastel tones
• Decorative stitching on visible seams
