SCHMETZ DOUBLE EYE SIZE 80 PACK OF 5 CARDED
Description / SCHMETZ DOUBLE EYE SIZE 80 PACK OF 5 CARDED
Schmetz Double Eye Pack of 5 Needles (Carded) NM 80 / Size 12.
The Double Eye Needle has two eyes and is designed for sewing with 2 upper threads (needle threads). It can therefore be used to create decorative effects when quilting and when using decorative stitches. When using top threads of the same color, the seam is thicker and therefore attracts more attention, creating an effect similar to when using a thicker thread. You can create unique highlights with the Double Eye Needle when using sewing threads in different colors or using multi-colored threads: Because there are two eyes, the sequence of the threads is always fixed unlike when using two threads in one eye. This is particularly attractive when using decorative stitches.
Insert the Double Eye Needle into the needle bar as far as it will go, just as you would with any other needle. Thread the two top threads through all guide elements according to your machine's operating instructions. Use all the separation options above the needle. Then pass one of the threads through the upper eye and the other through the lower eye. Please note that the automatic needle threader does not work with the Double Eye Needle. The bobbin is inserted as normal, just like with other needles.
First try out the desired decorative stitches on some leftover fabric using the smallest width and then gradually increase the stitch width. When using the Double Eye Needle, the effective stitch width is limited on many sewing machines. It depends on the features on the sewing machine in question. If the selected stitch width is too large, the thread in the upper eye is no longer properly caught by the hook and skipped stitches may occur. In this case, select a smaller stitch width.
Be brave and start experimenting: The possibilities are endless and you can achieve some really interesting results!
