Needle Sizes
The size of the sewing machine needle is in direct correlation with the weight or thickness of the fabric you are sewing. Needles sizes are numbered using both American and European systems. In both systems the higher the number, the thicker the needle, and the larger the hole it will make in the fabric.
Needle Points
Needles are available in three different tips designed for different types of fabric. Your fabric may require a specific point type to obtain uniform stitching from your sewing machine. Universal- point needles can be used for sewing both knit and woven fabrics. Sharp needles are designed for woven fabrics. Ball point needless is designed for knit fabrics.

Specialty sewing machine needles can help you get special effects that would not be possible with a standard needle.

Machines sew better when we use Schmetz in European made machines, Organ for Asia made and Brazil for Singer made, which is also what they are timed with at those factories. You can safely substitute Schmetz for Organ, but you would pay twice as much for their specialty needles in sergers, blindhem and covenhem machines made in Asia.
AllBrands.com Also has larger quantites, Box of 100.
