METY 5/2 - Metallic Thread
- Thread Tension:
As for all metallic threads, a loose thread tension is extremely important. - Thread Release:
Smooth metallic threads need a bit more support while embroidering. Spool stockings keep the thread on the cone without pinching it. The advantage: no uncontrolled slipping of the thread from the cone, no tangling, no thread breakage. - Design:
Best effects can be achieved in large-scale patterns, but it’s also suitable for very fine embroideries.
Tips from our experts:
- Size 7/2 is the thinner metallic thread; this size is closer to a 40 wt thread (stitch density for 40 wt thread).
- Size 5/2 is the somewhat heavier metallic thread; this size is closer to a 30wt thread (stitch desnity for 30wt thread).
