Gutermann is one of the world's most trusted thread brands, and their elastic thread is no exception. Wound on convenient 10-metre reels, this premium elastic thread delivers consistent tension and outstanding recovery — essential for professional shirring and smocking results. The 64% polyester / 36% polyurethane blend gives it the perfect balance of stretch and strength, making it a go-to choice for dressmakers, embroiderers, and craft enthusiasts alike.How to use: For shirring, wind the elastic thread onto your machine bobbin by hand (do not use the machine winder), then sew with a regular thread on top. The fabric will gather automatically as you stitch. For smocking, use by hand or machine to create decorative elasticated pleats. For gimp work, use to stabilise edges, reinforce buttonholes, or guide raised embroidery details. Always test on a scrap of fabric first to check tension and gather ratio.Colour accuracy: Images are representative. Actual colour may vary slightly depending on your monitor settings and lighting conditions. If colour matching is critical, we recommend ordering a reel to check before purchasing in quantity.
