Schmetz Super Stretch Needles, Size 90 - 1 pack of 5 needles on card 002

Schmetz Super Stretch Needles, Gauge 90 - 1x5 Needles on Card 002 - Schmetz Super Stretch Needles - 5 pieces
The ideal needle for highly elastic fabrics such as Lycra, swimwear, and sportswear. The Schmetz HAx1 SP Super Stretch has a medium-round point and a modified scarf (notch), which makes it easier for the looper to pick up the loop. The result: a significant decrease in skipped stitches and a beautiful, elastic stitch—even under heavy stretch.

When should you choose Super Stretch?

• For Lycra, elastane, powernet, sportswear, and swimwear
• If you're having trouble with skipped stitches on very stretchy fabrics
• For elastic seams using straight stitches, stretch stitches, or narrow zigzag stitches

Features

• Type: HAx1 SP (Super Stretch) - household needles
• Stitch: medium-round (gentle on knit/Lycra)
