Pinking Shears for Embroidery

This page gathers DMC pinking shears in 20 cm for embroiderers; the serrated blade cuts the fabric in zigzag and the edge does not fray. In embroidery, the hoop allowance of linen and cotton, felt appliqué and patch edges are pinked; it also gives a decorative edge. All pinking shears are in Pinking Shears, straight cutting in Sewing Scissors, the branch page in Embroidery Scissors.

How to Use Them

Fabric flat, shears fully open, work in long cuts; never on paper or card. Brush the serrated blades clean after cutting.
