Packet of 5 needles.
These needles are to fit your domestic/household sewing machine.
Has a slightly sharp cutting point for leather and other heavy non-woven synthetics including imitation leather.
Key features of the Leather Needle:
- The cutting point LL (twist point) cuts easily through leather and similar materials thanks to its cutting action. It also creates an angled stitching line, which gives the seam a decorative look.
- Please note: Leather Needles are NOT suitable for textiles due to their cutting effect, as woven or knitted fabrics can be severed during sewing.
- Choose a longer stitch length to stop the stitches being torn out. When locking the seam, make sure that the sewing thread is not severed.
- Tip: The longer the stitch length, the easier it is to see the angled appearance of the stitch and, as a result, the decorative effect of the seam. This effect can be enhanced further by using a thick sewing thread.
Sizes available:
- 18/110
- 19/120
- Assorted
