The stretch needles I use... and they are labeled "stretch needles" are very sharp... and every since I've been using them my sewing on these fabrics is so much better... and I sew ALOT! I don't just make costumes I have a small couture line of clothing I sell also.

Loose knits are a completely different thing... and there are needles just for those to... they are jersey ballpoints.

I've taken lots of classes for sewing over the years and I have had classes
with instructors that have a
different preference... but this is what has worked for me for years.
And I have many beautiful clothes and costumes I've made as well as many satisfied customers.
Still, most important thing... a kick a** machine!
