Chizimi- 100% Polyester Thread, Two Spool Sizes: 300m and 3000m.  Chizimi is a special polyester thread that sews like regular thread until it is exposed to steam.  After adding steam the thread shrinks 30% to create shirring and gathers.  So interesting!!

  • Use in bobbin ONLY for less puckering OR use in both bobbin and as top thread for more puckering.
  • Will work with any fabric BUT works best with lightweight fabrics such as lightweight cotton, rayon, silk, chiffon, or organza.
  • Stitch in single rows or a double row design on your fabric, turn the fabric to the wrong side, and with a hot iron, steam fabric generously.
  • This thread is washable
  • Made in Japan
  • Color is #40 white
