GETTING READY ————————————————————————————————————————————

Memo

￿The lower the thread number is, the thicker the thread, and the higher the needle number, the thicker the needle.

￿A 75/11 needle is already installed when the sewing machine is purchased.

■Ball point needle (gold colored)

To avoid skipped stitches use ball point needles with stretch fabrics.

■Transparent nylon thread

Use a 90/14 to 100/16 needle, regardless of the fabric or thread.

■Embroidery needles

Use a 75/11 home sewing machine needle. When embroidering on thick fabrics such as denim, use a 90/14 or 100/16 home sewing machine needle.

CAUTION

￿The appropriate fabric, thread and needle combinations are shown in the table (page 39). If the combination of the fabric, thread and needle is not correct, particularly when sewing thick fabrics (such as denim) with thin needles (such as 65/9 to 75/11), the needle may bend or break. In addition, the stitching may be uneven or puckered or there may be skipped stitches.

Checking the needle

Sewing with a bent needle is extremely dangerous since the needle may break while the machine is being operated.

Before using the needle, place the flat side of the needle on a flat surface and check that the distance between the needle and the flat surface is even.
