Sulky Thread Cotton Petites - 12wt Greige

Modern, versatile, and beautifully understated.
Greige sits perfectly between grey and beige, offering a refined neutral that blends effortlessly into contemporary colour palettes.
It provides definition without contrast, making it ideal for stitching that enhances rather than dominates.
This shade works beautifully with natural linens, taupes, low-volume prints, charcoal, soft whites, and earthy tones.
If you love subtle texture and sophisticated finishes, Greige is a staple colour to have on hand.
The 12wt weight creates visible stitch texture while maintaining a soft cotton finish.
And because Sulky Cotton Petites is a single, non-divisible strand, there's no separating floss - simply thread and stitch.

Machine Tips
Sulky 12wt can also be used for decorative machine stitching.
For best results:
"¢ Use a 90/14 Topstitch needle
"¢ Slightly increase your stitch length
"¢ Pair with 50wt cotton in the bobbin
"¢ Reduce top tension slightly if needed
This allows the thicker 12wt thread to flow smoothly and sit beautifully on the surface of your fabric.
