Thread Weight Matters - Embroidered Clothing |
There are many threads in the marketplace labeled as an inaccurate 40-weight thread. The weight measurement for thread is actually based on length, not heaviness. A thread is labeled at 40 because 40 kilometers of the thread will weigh 1 kilogram. And the weight is determined by how many kilometers of the thread it takes to amount to 1 kilogram in weight. The lower the weight number, the heavier the thread. A “true” 40-weight thread will save both time and money.
Here’s how:
Less Splitting: Arcs and curves are a common feature in many designs today. A standard thread will often split when stitching a unique design or logo. A true 40-weight thread can handle the increased stress an arc or curve can place, resulting in less splitting. |
