•Looper thread factor = 8 ¸ 3 = 2.67 inches of looper thread per inch of seam.
•Total needle thread consumed = factor 3 X 1.17yds = 3.51 yds
•Total looper thread consumed = factor 2.67 X 1.17yds = 3.12 yds
•Total Thread = 3.51 + 3.12 = 6.63 yards per seam.
•Generally, a 15 to 20% waste factor is added due to chaining-off, thread breaks,repairs, etc.
•If a waste factor of 15% is selected then:
