Perfect needle for sewing lingerie including bras and highly elastic fabrics such as lycra. Sew elastic into fabric without skipping stitches. HAx1SP Super Stretch needles from Schmetz are also used in selected overlockers.
 
This needle is designed to be closer to the hook in the bobbin area thanks to a special flat shank, which makes it easier for the hook to pick up the thread loop.
 
Preventing skipped stitches, even when working with highly elastic fabrics. Combined with the larger eye and wider thread groove, you can use the Super Stretch needle with thicker sewing threads.
 
Struggling with skipped stitches on stretch fabrics whilst using a Jersey or Stretch needle, then switch to this one.
 
Suitable fabrics - Elastic or highly elastic knitted fabric / Swimwear fabric
