    Made especially for synthetic suede or highly elastic synthetic knit wear. This needle is constructed with a medium ball point to help prevent skipped stitches. It comes in sizes 65/9, 75/11 and 90/14. Choose the size based on the type and size of thread being used.

    Used for stretch materials - similar to the Jersey needle, the ball point on this needle avoids cutting through fibres, which would be disastrous for a stretch material. The scarf on this needle is specially designed to prevent skipped stitches.

    The special design helps to avoid skipped stitches.
    The shank is flatter than on other needles with the same diameter. This means that the needle is closer to the hook, which also helps to avoid skipped stitches.

    Sewing stretchy knits, fleece, minky / minkee / plush / microfibre fabrics or Shannon Fabrics' cuddle fabric? Using Schmetz Stretch needles will make sewing a breeze.

    Suitable fabrics:
    • For elastic or highly elastic knitted fabric
    • The more elastic the material, the more suited the stretch needle is (if in doubt, use the stretch needle).
    • Swimwear fabrics
    • Fine jersey, silk jersey, single jersey, velour cloth
    • Cotton knitwear
