Schmetz Universal Twin 75(11)-90(14) Sewing Machine Needle (3 pack) – 719777
Twin Needle properties are equivalent to single needles.
Use for pintucks, topstitching, single and multi-coloured decorative seams and hems.
Use two spools of thread and one bobbin thread.
Twin needles are actually two needles mounted on one shaft and are used to create two rows of stitches at the same time.
When using a double needle, two spools of thread will be used at the top of the machine. Pass the thread from each one on a different side of the tension discs and thread one into each needle. Only one bobbin thread will be used and the stitches will create a double “web” of stitches on the back of the work.
Check to see how you like this under-stitching prior to using these needles. The package of needles will show two numbers. One is the needle size; the other is the distance between the two needles.
Remember that the needles must fit through the hole in the stitch plate, so if you have been using a straight stitch plate you must change it to a zig-zag stitch plate to avoid hitting the plate with the needles! This could be a disappointing and expensive mistake!
