Description
Pale yellow stays so restrained that beside cream it barely shows. Only beside white does it reveal itself as yellow at all.
Material is 100 % polyester, width measures 6 mm, sold from 0.2 metres. Satin means long yarn floats across the show side, hence that sheen. This ribbon barely creases, settling flat again soon after unrolling. Care symbols exclude washing, ironing, bleach and tumble dryer. Because satin slips, add a drop of fabric glue inside a bow's knot. On paper, double-sided tape holds better than liquid glue, which soaks through narrow ribbon and leaves dark marks.
What Satin Ribbon 6 mm Pale Yellow is suitable for
- Key fobs, because polyester does not give.
- Bookmarks, because this ribbon lies flat in a book.
- Decoration on branches, because 6 mm knots easily.

Frequently asked questions
What is a 6 mm width good for?
Anything meant to stay fine: neck bows on children's clothes, edges on cards, gift tags, hair pieces for little ones. Wider ribbons add bulk; this one lies flat, nearly vanishing into a seam.
Why does only one side shine?
That is the satin weave: on the show side, yarn floats long across the surface and reflects light; on the back it binds short and stays matt. You can use either side deliberately.
Can I sew several side by side?
Yes, that gives a fine striped effect. Mark your lines with chalk first and keep the gaps even — at 6 mm, a gap of about one ribbon width looks right.
What happens when I seal the edge?
Polyester melts and closes that edge — it takes under a second. Hold the end only briefly to the flame and let it cool before touching, or the sealed edge distorts.
