Serger F.A.Q
Can I use WonderFil threads in a serger?
Yes. Threads like SoftLoc™ and DecoBob™ run smoothly in sergers for functional and decorative seams.
WonderFil offers multiple serger‑friendly options. SoftLoc™ textured nylon is ideal for soft, durable seams; DecoBob™ 80wt is excellent for precise, lightweight serging. Both support construction and decorative edges.
What’s the best WonderFil thread for rolled hems?
How do I prevent skipped stitches on a serger?
Use the correct needle type, keep the serger clean, and be sure threads are fully seated in tension disks and guides.
Skipped stitches often trace to wrong needles, lint buildup, or incorrect threading. Match needle to fabric, clean regularly, and re‑seat threads in all guides and disks.
Can I use metallic thread in a serger?
Yes, especially in loopers for decorative edges. Adjust tension and test settings for balance.
Metallics in loopers create sparkling edges for garments and décor. Adjust tensions and test on scraps to balance stitch formation and avoid breaks.
