gentle ben Report post Posted August 10, 2013 I've got 2 spools of this Gutermann linen thread, I think it's 2 ply. Is it possible to double up the thread in each needle before I sew? Any reason not to? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
electrathon Report post Posted August 10, 2013 You can. It likely will not lay as straight as if you left it alone. It will sew just fine though. Think about how your Mom sews, always two threads when doing clothing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

johnv474 Report post Posted August 24, 2013 I recently tried braiding three pieces together. the results were okay i suppose but probably reflective of amateurish braiding. these were three pieces of 5 strand linen thread. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
