Chizimi Shrinkable Thread
??? Threads That Actually Shrinks !!!

 

Made by Ozeki Co.  Japan

 
As show-cased in the "Stitches Magazine"
Introducing  "WIRE" Brand  "SHRINKABLE"  (Chi-zi-mi)  Polyester thread.
This state of the art thread can be used by embroiderers, 
industrial sewing manufacturers, and home sewing artists.
How It Works
When the thread is exposed to heat through a Steam,
it shrinks approximately 30% leaving behind a beautiful , shirred or puckered fabric!
Once the thread has been exposed to heat it will not shrink again.
The overall effect is similar to Smocking.
Applications

can be used in a variety of ways (designers choice),

such as on blouce sleeve ends.
It can also be used as bobbin thread on embroidery machines
making overall embroiderered design shrink.
Both usages add texture, dimension and shape.
For the embroidery application, any type of top thread is acceptable,
allowing for the effect to be colorized.
