I recently upgraded and bought two new Babylock (domestic) machines - no one told me the serger needs an Ha x 1 SP /CR needle - and what is that anyway?! Until I saw this video! Thanks! Super thanks! From a seamstress of 45 years - I have sewn personal wardrobe, gifts, costuming for ballet, clogging and cheerleading teams , bridal gowns and now quilting - thank you! I wish I had tried to decode needles years ago! 😉 👍 Very helpful video!
My question(s) is, How would a person know what size/type of needle to use for unusual items? I watched one of your videos using nylon rope and you used a leather needle size 18. If I didn't watch your video, how would I know that? What type of needle would you use for 1/4" clothesline rope? What if the clothesline rope has a poly core? How do we figure these out with the non standard sewing objects? I tried sewing 1/4" clothesline rope with a jeans needle and my machine laughed at me (lol). It's so frustrating spending money on stuff that just isn't working.
The Brother needles do have information stamped on them, but most people will need a magnifying glass to read it. I'm nearsighted and thus could juuuust make out the size info.

❤Thank you, I printed this out years ago, moved, rearranged my sewing room and lost it. Thanks for sharing this information!
Thank you for this video. EVERYONE has issues with "needle info", and that also means those of us who do commercial sewing. Thank you again.
thanks Christopher, great information
Thank you 💐

while going thru me sewing room, I found 2 pkgs of 700R all steel needles. Any idea what they are for?
I watched the SCHMETZ representative do a presentation and top stitch and metallic are the same needle. It’s about marketing.
Be sure to compare the point tips of each type of needle. Photos show them on each brand website.
I still can’t wrap my head around needles
They're not secret.
