Seralene
Seralene overlock thread stands for fine, even overlock seams - particularly suitable for light to fine fabrics such as cotton voile, batiste, jersey or fine knits. The smooth thread lies neatly in the sewing, ensuring clean edges and inconspicuous rolled hems. If you want to sew filigree hems or stretch seams, a fine overlock thread is often the first choice.
What is Seralene overlock thread suitable for?
Seralene is particularly suitable for:
- Rolled hems and fine hem finishes
- Serging on lightweight woven fabrics
- Elastic seams on jersey and lightweight knit fabrics
- Decorative edges and decorative seams with a fine look
Processing tips for neat seams
For best results with Seralene overlock thread, make sure you use the right needle size (choose a finer needle size for fine fabrics), set the correct thread tension and use the right machine guide. For long cones, use a thread spool holder or stand and, if necessary, a small thread net to keep the thread feed even. For very light fabrics, a finely adjusted differential feed helps to prevent rippling.
Color selection, combination options and care
Fine overlock threads such as Seralene are available in neutral and trendy shades, so you can choose to make seam color invisible or deliberately use it as a contrast. For children's clothing and everyday pieces, it is advisable to have a basic color and some contrasting colors for decorative seams. Store threads in a dry place away from direct sunlight to keep the color stable for longer.
