Seam pucker


Before the seam starts puckering – Ask Gütermann


You probably consider the quality of textiles to be paramount – second only to a beautiful looking seam. But the unfortunate truth is that all too often, seam pucker spoils the look of an otherwise attractive garment.

On the following pages you can find out all about the causes of seam pucker and how to avoid them.
