Glittering Polyester Thread - Functionality Meets Glamour
A new star has risen - SULKY® POLY SPARKLE is hard-wearing and sparkling, because a polyester thread is twisted with a metallic thread.
Standard metallic threads are not twisted but coated.
This is exactly the crucial difference. The polyester component makes the thread hard-wearing and soft, the metallic thread lets POLY SPARKLE sparkle and glitter.

  • In some cases we recommend to reduce the sewing speed especially for dense embroidery
  • If you have difficulties try to lengthen the thread path
  • All Sulky thread spools have at least one "snap spool" end - including the King Size spools.
  • Gently lift up the end with your thumb, release the thread, then snap it closed.
  • To secure the thread when your sewing is completed, gently lift the end with your thumb, wind the thread into the gap, and snap it closed.
  • For best results use bobbin thread SULKY® BOBBIN
