Review on High-Quality WonderFil DecoBob White Thread: 2-ply Cottonized Polyester, 80wt- Perfect for All Your Sewing Needs by Kristen Reid

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fine, strong thread - use the right needles and tension

I recommend anyone using this thread to watch the Wonderfil Threads YouTube video (they have a channel). It suggests needle sizes, tension, and thread pairing settings. For my project I used this decobob top and bottom to topstitch the baby blanket and also to attach the border. I use Microtex needles. I had to slightly adjust the top and bottom tension on my machine. Once the property was listed, it worked flawlessly. No breaks, the seam is clean. This is a very thin, very strong thread. I'm lazy and I'm knitting on a typewriter. This thread gives a very fine stitch that sits securely and is unobtrusive. I plan to knit with this yarn. I also note that there were no side effects from the hot iron. I usually use Aurophile, but I'm really enjoying using and rearranging this thread. I couldn't be happier. Some were surprised by the size of the coil. As the weight is 80 vs 50 it will be less due to the thinner thread. Always check the length (and do conversions if necessary) to compare with another stream.

Pros
  • Sewing
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than others
