②The thin sewing thread is small in size and feels good in chain sewing.
③The sewing thread occupies a very small space during sewing, which causes less fabric deformation and sewing wrinkles.
④ Small needles can be used for fine sewing threads to avoid needle holes in the fabric.
⑤ The fine sewing thread can also reduce the prominent seam marks, making it trapped in the inner layer of the fabric surface and reducing the impact of wear and tear
