When the thread shrinks, it leaves uneven and curved surfaces. This technique is especially effective to enhance the texture and richness of garments and it is not very hard to do. Just use the Chizimi thread on your machine bobbin or the bobbin and upper thread. Other applications include partial shrink designs combined with flat embroidery for pleats tucks, smocking and more.
