Description

Twin needles, also known as double needles, are designed to elevate your sewing projects by allowing you to create two parallel rows of stitches simultaneously. Ideal for adding decorative touches or reinforcing seams, the Schmetz Twin Needle is a versatile addition to any sewing enthusiast's toolkit.

Key Features

  • Point Shape: Slightly rounded, perfect for a wide range of fabrics
  • Gap Size: 2mm spacing for precise and consistent stitching
  • Dual Threading: Enables creative and decorative stitching with two separate threads
  • Compatibility: Works seamlessly with all conventional household sewing machines that support the zigzag function

Easy to Use

  1. Inserting the Needles: Mount the twin needles on the same shaft and ensure they are securely fastened.
