Anand,
Here's where this job got interesting. I had to use metallic thread but
the garment was a knit. I ended up using a 75/11 sharp due to the
metallic thread. Certain machines still had issues with keeping the
thread the right tension. I was hoping that a small sharp like 75/ll
wouldn't end up creating holes in the garment. So far that doesn't look
like it will be an issue. I have to resew 4 garments that had looping so
bad I couldn't let them go out. What a pain ...

Cheryl,

90/14 is like using a match stick on a knit we use them only when we are
having trouble with caps.

We use 75/11 Sharps  as standard. They are ok on picque knit as long as
you
have the right backing.

The other day on 185gsm Cotton Colarado or jersey knit I had to switch
to
65/10 Balls and slow the machine to 600.

Aaron,
Can you use that needle on a knit? You always use a sharp to sew
metallic, don't you?
