Selecting Needle And Fabric - Janome 385.4052LX200 Manual De Instrucciones

Selecting Needle and Fabric
For general sewing, use needle sizes 1 t or 14, A fine thread and needle should be
used for sewing lightweight fabrics, so the fabric will not be marred. Heavy fabrics
require a needle large enough to pierce the fabric without fraying the needle thread
in the needle set, there is one each of sizes t 1, 14, 16, and I8, and a blue needle,
Use the blue needle to eliminate skipped stilches when sewing knits and synthetic
fabrics.,
Special needles should be used on certain fabrics A denim needle with a sharp tip
effectively pierces dense fabrics such as denim and canva& For topstitching, a
special topstitching needle with a larger eye, accommodates heavier weight thread
Leather needles punch small holes in leather and suede, allowing the thread to
follow through the hole
Check your needles frequently for rough or blunt tips, Snags and runs in knits, fine
silks and silk-like fabrics are permanent, and are often caused by damaged
needles
Always purchase a good quality thread It should be strong, smooth and consistent
in thickness
