Description
A multicolour thread: Coral, Brown and Teal follow one another on a single thread. Sulky calls the colour “Coral/Brown/Teal”, colour number 2244.
Viscose shines softly and warmly, almost like silk. Rayon 40 does not lint, does not shrink and stays colourfast even after hot washes. Viscose stretches less than polyester. That makes the thread pleasantly easy to work in the machine, especially on dense designs. At weight 40 it suits the usual embroidery programmes and decorative stitches.
Tip: with a fine to medium embroidery needle and slightly looser top tension, the stitches come out cleanest.
What Sulky Rayon 40 Embroidery Thread 780 m Multicolour 2244 is suitable for
- lettering meant to glow in colour
- quilting stitches as a design element
- borders and decorative stitches with changing colours
- cheerful designs for children
Sewing tips
- Nadelstärke NM 75–80 verwenden, Universal-, Top-Stitch- oder Sticknadel.
- Die Oberfadenspannung beim Sticken etwas lockerer stellen als beim Nähen.
- Als Unterfaden ein dünnes Untergarn nehmen; ist die Rückseite sichtbar, passt auch Rayon 40 selbst.
- Die Zierstiche der meisten Nähmaschinen sind auf ein Garn der Stärke 40 ausgelegt.
- Stickvlies passend zum Stoff wählen, damit sich das Motiv nicht wellt.
- Farbnummer notieren, dann lässt sich dieselbe Farbe später eindeutig nachbestellen.

Frequently asked questions
How should I store the spools?
Upright, dry and out of direct sunlight. Dust on the thread carries lint into the machine, so a closed box is the simplest answer for a larger thread collection.
How do I set the thread tension?
While embroidering the top tension may sit slightly looser than for sewing. It is right when the reverse shows roughly one third top thread and two thirds bobbin thread.
Which needle suits Rayon 40?
Ideally a universal, top-stitch or embroidery needle in a fine to medium size. A needle that is too fine makes the thread chafe, one that is too thick leaves visible holes in the fabric.
How does a multicolour thread look in a design?
Several colours follow one another on a single thread. On decorative stitches and lettering that creates a lively change of colour without swapping thread. The longer the stitches, the clearer the single colours.
