• Full package: 5 needles per pack. 20 packs per box

What is this material

A jersey needle stands out because of its medium ball point, which doesn't pierce through the fibers of a knit fabric but glides gently between them instead. This way you prevent annoying holes and runs in your fabric, something that easily happens with a regular universal needle on stretchy materials. The 70/10 size is on the finer side and works really well with light to medium weight knits and jerseys. The five needles in the pack each come with the recognizable orange color marking, so you can easily spot them among your other needle types. These needles fit most standard household sewing machines with a 130/705 H system.

Uses

These jersey needles are essential once you start working with stretchy fabrics. Think of projects like:

• Sewing t-shirts and tops from knit
• Making activewear and leggings
• Baby and children's clothing in soft jersey
• Sewing underwear and pajamas
• Dresses from viscose knit or modal jersey
• Scarves and accessories from stretchy fabric
• Repairs to existing jersey garments
• Swatches and practice material for beginners
