Choosing jersey and ballpoint needles

Read the point designation

A Jersey needle is a starting point for knitted loops. Compare the point designation and choose the size for your thread and knit weight. Test the seam with the same fabric layers you plan to sew.

Compare jersey with stretch

If your material has pronounced elasticity, compare the eye and scarf of a dedicated Stretch model. The scarf is the recess above the eye where the hook catches the thread. Keep machine fit and size in mind when testing the different designs.

Department questions

Which size should I buy for several knits?

Read the recommended range and compare an assorted card with single-size stock. Record which size you used on each test seam.

Can I use a home-machine Jersey needle on a serger?

Read the serger manual for its full system. Ball point names describe the tip, while the system determines fit.

Can I compare by ball point name alone?

Check the needle maker’s intended fabric and size, then test with the same thread and knit you plan to sew.
