Stretch needle 130/705 H-S. Size: 75/11 Ballpoint tip For thin stretchy fabrics like jersey (weight/m2 200 - 230g), swimwear fabrics, lightweight knits, microfleece, polyester mocha and stretch velvet Package size: 5pcs Stretch needles, often confused with Jersey needles, are also a ballpoint tip, but these have a special eye and scarf that are designed for extremely stretchy fabrics like jersey, stretch sweat etc and elastic. Stretchy fabrics are tricky for the needle to separate the fibres and sew well. The result is puckering and or missed stitches in a seam. Stretch needles slide through the fibres and maintain a good stitch without breaking the fabric or making holes.
