Description
Schmetz stretch needles as an assortment in sizes 75 and 90, for everything with plenty of give. On leggings, ribbing or sportswear the machine likes to skip the odd stitch, and this needle shape is built to prevent exactly that. Sew with a stretch stitch as well, then the seam will not tear open when the fabric is stretched.
