When to choose it
Consider the 100/16 Jersey needle when your thread and fabric guidance supports that size. Its ball point is intended for knits, so compare it on the actual loops and layers instead of choosing by thickness alone.
If the knit is finer or the thread is lighter, compare a smaller Jersey size within the same family. For elastic behavior that calls for a different eye or scarf, look at the Stretch family rather than sizing up automatically.

Questions about this product
Is the point a leather cutting point?
It is the Jersey ball point for knits. Choose a material-specific point for leather.
How does this compare with the 80/12 Jersey card?
The point family stays the same, and the nominal size is larger on the 100/16 card.
Will a larger size fix an elastic seam by itself?
Check the fabric, thread and needle family. A dedicated Stretch model may offer a geometry change worth testing.
