Needle
design
In
most
cases
the
standard
needle
is
the
most
suitable
and
the
thickness
of
the
needle
should
be
adapted
to
the
type
of
thread
and
fabric.
1-lowever,
when
sewing
certain
fabrics,
another
design
of
the
needle
point
can
produce
better
results.
You
will
find
two
needles
in
the
needle
case
with
the
description
“Stretch”
(completely
blue).
These
needles
have
rounder
tips
and
should
be
used
when
sewing
light
elastic
fabrics.
When
a
needle
of
this
type
contacts
a
thread
in
the
weave,
the
thread
is
pushed
aside,
without
it
being
damaged.
ft
is
also
suitable
for
sewing
corduroy
and
soft
leather.
If,
on
the
other
hand,
you
are
using
a
rigid
fabric,
like
denim,
sewing
will
be
easier
if
you
use
the
needle
described
“Jeans”
(top
part
blue).
This
has
a
sharper
tip,
enabling
it
to
pass
through
thick
seams
more
easily.
There
is
a
twin
needle
in
the
needle
case.
It
consists
of
two
standard
needles,
size
80,
and
is
intended
to
be
used
when
sewing
decorative
or
raised
seams,
as
described
on
pages
16
and36.
When
you
use
the
twin
needle,
first
press
the
button
marked
.
The
machine
will
then
automatically
limit
the
stitch
width
for
all
stitches
and
the
twin
needle
can
be
used
without
any
risk
of
it
striking
against
the
stitch
plate.
N.B.
After
removing
the
twin
needle,
press
again
the
-push-button
until
the
light
goes
out.
Increase
the
stitch
width
again
if
you
are
going
on
using
the
same
stitch
with
the
ordinary
needle.
Regarding
special
needles,
please
refer
to
“Needle
Assortment”
on
pages
55
and
56.
