About Gutermann's Maraflex

Maraflex™️ is an elasticised thread that enables you to sew light-medium knit and stretch woven fabrics using a straight stitch instead of the 'lightning bolt' or zigzag stitch.   This has been a 'game-changer' for home sewists, especially those who do not have an overlocker.  Maraflex creates elastic seams, with a seam stretch of up to 80%, which makes it perfect for all your knit fabric sewing, particularly for cuffs, necklines and waistbands.    The thread gives the whole garment more 'give' at the seams, so it's perfect for joggers/track suits, hoodies/sweaters, and cardigans.  There is no need to overlock edges of knit fabrics as they do not fray, so to give a neat appearance you can simply trim close to the seam line. 

"Maraflex has been produced using - Micro Core Technology.  MTC is the unique microfilament polyester based core spun technology - Made in Germany. This production process makes Maraflex a particularly high-quality sewing thread".
