Which size twin needle should I use?
The pin tuck foot is wonderful for adding a decorative effect to any of your sewing projects. Each foot has tiny grooves underneath which form the tucks as you sew. Whether you make one row of tucks, or many together this foot makes quick work.
Which needle size for Pin tuck size
The higher the number of grooves, the smaller the tuck space
3-groove, medium weight fabrics, stitch length 2.5
Twin needle size 2.0 or 2.5
5- groove, light to medium weight fabrics, stitch length 2.5
Twin needle size 2.0 or 2.5
7-groove, light weight fabrics, stitch length 2.0
Twin needle size 1.6 or 2.0
9-groove, very lightweight fabrics, stitch length 1.5 to 2.0

Have fun and Happy Stitchery!
