Universal – an all-purpose needle that handles most
woven and knit fabrics. A universal needle size 14/90
comes inserted in your machine.
Ball point – the point spreads the fibers, preventing
tears and is especially suited for knit fabrics. Not
recommended for embroidery.
Denim – the sharp tip effectively pierces densely
woven fabrics such as denim and canvas.
Stretch – specially designed to prevent skipped
stitches in synthetic suedes and elasticized knits
(swimwear).
Leather – the cutting point creates small holes in
leather and suede.
Topstitching – the extra sharp tip penetrates layers
of fabrics; extra large eye and large groove accom-
modate heavyweight topstitching thread.
Twin/Double – 2 needles are joined on a crossbar
and share a single shaft. Sews two parallel rows of
stitching. Available in universal and ballpoint.
