Gutermann Maraflex 150m
Gutermann Maraflex is a stretch elastic polyester thread, perfect for sewing with stretch and knitted jersey fabrics. Use a standard straight stitch for sewing jersey fabrics – no need to use a zig zag or even a triple stitch. A straight stitch will give you a much finer finish.
With a seam stretch of up to 80 %, Maraflex moves with the stretch of knitted woven fabrics. It can do this without compromising the quality of the seam.
Gutermann recommends that you sew with as little top thread tension as possible and use as this thread as both the needle and bobbin thread. Set your stitch to 4 stitch/cm (around stitch length number 3 on a modem sewing machine).
Available in a range of colours – just choose the colour and quantity you need.
