When to choose it

Use this size if your thread and fabric suit size 80 and your machine permits a 2.5 mm twin. The pack gives you a fixed spacing for comparing the two visible rows on a sample.

The Stretch Twin pack also comes in 2.5 mm but uses a different needle family and size. Compare the fabric requirements as well as the width when deciding between the two.
