How to use

Mount the spool on the machine spool pin or hold it securely for hand sewing, and thread according to your machine's threading path or hand-sewing technique. Select an appropriate needle size and stitch type for the fabric being sewn. Test stitch on a scrap of the same fabric to confirm tension, stitch length and thread compatibility before working on the final piece. Trim and secure thread ends after finishing seams to prevent unravelling.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use a needle size matched to the fabric weight and check tension settings when switching between lightweight and heavy fabrics. Store the spool away from direct sunlight and high humidity to preserve colour and strength. When sewing multiple layers or heavy textiles, consider using a new needle to maintain stitch quality and avoid skipped stitches.
