Glittering foil yarn

The “Glitter” foil yarn from Gunold immediately catches the eye in any embroidery motif. The wafer-thin cut foil - it is not twisted yarn - refracts the light like a hologram. With little effort, the effect thread creates a strong, fascinating effect in the motif. Ideal for decorative seams and surface design.

Effect yarn with special features

“Poly Flash” may look like a metallic yarn, but it is not. The inspiring fancy yarn feels extremely soft and is easy to work with. The look of “Poly Flash” is achieved through the manufacturing process. The two-ply yarn is twisted with one black and one coloured polyester thread. The two-tone effect is particularly evident in light colours such as silver, gold, yellow, or grey. But even with darker shades, the refraction of light results in a more intense sheen than with single-coloured polyester threads.

“Poly Flash” is as hard-wearing and chlorine-resistant as polyester, has a soft sheen like viscose and shimmers like a metallic yarn. Embroidery or decorative seams are given a sophisticated look with “Poly Flash”. The look is reminiscent of hammered and slightly matt metal. The fancy yarn is easy-care and machine-friendly like polyester, making it a good alternative to a classic metallic yarn.

Hard-wearing sparkle yarn

Two polyester threads combined with a metallic thread give “Poly Sparkle” a sparkling look and high durability at the same time. This mix of yarn qualities in different colours makes unusual colour combinations possible. Another special plus point: “Poly Sparkle” is pleasantly soft, which is unusual for metallic yarns. The unusual sparkle and glitter is taken from the colour spectrum of the metallic yarn used. The effect? Harmonious, understated, and elegant at the same time.
