What's the Difference Between a SCHMETZ Stretch Needle and a Jersey Needle?
~A Stretch Needle has a shorter and narrower eye compared to a Jersey needle.
~The Stretch Needle scarf (that little indentation on the back side of the needle above the eye) is deeper.
~Both needles have a medium ballpoint.
Use the SCHMETZ Stretch needle on elastic or highly elastic fabrics. Start with a Stretch Needle if the fabric blend includes or Spandex. If the stitch quality is not to your liking, then switch to the Jersey with elongated eye.
