I read below that you can use this thread in a home machine, but in the bobbin. So does that mean to use a universal thread through your needle or use the stretch thread as well?

Correct. You would use the stretch thread only in the bobbin and a standard all purpose thread for the needle.

I saw an answer stating to use this on the lower looper. Would you use this for all four threads on a serger for a 4 way stretch fabric, or is it only for the lower looper? Not on the upper looper? I need to know how many cones to buy.

A:
We checked with the manufacturer of the thread, they said that yes, you can indeed iron it. It will also not pucker like Wooly Nylon did.

Can this thread be used in a sewing machine and if so is there any special rules one needs to follow i.e. stitch length, needle size?

Please Note: Your answer will be displayed upon approval.
A:
Yes, this thread can be used on sewing machines. It's mainly used in the bobbin for regular machines and in the lower looper for serger machines. The size needle would be a standard size 12. Stitch length and tensions may need to be adjusted, but you will have to do some trail and error to get it right.

A:
It is similar, but the Woolley nylon is a bit fuzzier, and stretcher.

This thread would work well for this application. The thread also fluffs up to enhance the look of the stitching.

We do not carry a match in our maxilock stretch for those Gutermann color numbers. The closest would be the SPT1032599 "natural".

Does the "pearl" color become almost opaque when it is part of a serged stitch? Looking for a color that will blend into fabric colors when I don't have a matching color for serger loopers.

A:
No, I'm afraid this thread is not opaque. The Gutermann Skala thread tends to blend into the fabric color it is stitched into, however, that thread is much thinner (tex 8 or tex 15).

Good quality

Works well for me, it's my go to stretch thread for knits and knit lingerie . I use it in the serger and coverstitch loopers and the bobbin in the sewing machine. The only issue I've ever had is with it unraveling (I think due to it's slippery nature or perhaps it's my machines? They are basic Brothers) too quickly from the spool and snagging on the thread holder or pedestal and causing tight stitches or broken stitches.

M. M.
Thank you for your review.

It my serger loopers

I use this in my serger loopers. My son is very active so the stretch thread is a must, ever since I put this in the loopers- no popped seams. It is cheaper than other stretch thread but works just as well.
