TOP TIPS When sewing with the new Jersey knits use either a Ballpoint or Stretch needle. I prefer to use the 'Schmetz' stretch needle, as some of the jerseys will not accept the ballpoint. Test your fabric before begining to sew- check your stitches and tension! Ballpoint or stretch needles can be used for lycra as well. If using these needles on wovens change to a new needle when reverting back to stretch! Always change your needle regulary every 2-3 garments is recommended! Happy sewing:)
