Elastic Thread is a flexible, stretchable thread commonly used in sewing to create gathers, shirring, and stretchable seams. Made from a blend of elastic and polyester or cotton, it provides the perfect balance of elasticity and durability for both hand and machine stitching. Elastic thread is ideal for projects that require a snug, adjustable fit, such as waistbands, cuffs, or elasticized hems in garments and accessories. Its ability to stretch and recover makes it an essential tool for creating stretchy, comfortable clothing and crafts.
