Tipsy Tuesday: Choosing the Right Sewing Needle
Three types of needles are used in the majority of sewing applications.
➡Universal needles have a slightly rounded top & are good for general purpose applications on works and sturdy knits.
➡Jersey needles have a medium ball point tip designed especially for knit (tshirt like) fabrics because it slips between knit fibers and will not cut or damage them while sewing.
➡Stretch needles not to be confused with Jersey needles have a special eye and scarf that are designed for extremely stretchy fabrics and elastic. Think swimwear or dance costumes.
