Gütermann tip for best results

Use a universal needle or an overlock needle NM 60-70. Because of the fine size no. 180, it is worth adjusting the thread tension carefully; always test on a scrap first. If you are using an overlock or coverstitch machine, this thread may also be combined with a second thread depending on your machine and project.
