Selecting Needle and Fabric For general sewing, use needle sizes 11 or 14. A fine thread and needle should be used for sewing lightweight fabrics, so the fabric will not be marred. Heavy fabrics require a needle large enough to pierce the fabric without fraying the needle thread. In the needle set, there is one each of sizes 11, 14, 16, and 18, and a blue needle. Use the blue needle to eliminate skipped stitches when sewing knits and synthetic fabrics. Special needles should be used on certain fabrics.
Seleccibn de hilo y tela Para el cosido general se utilizan agujas del tama_o 11 o 14. Los hilos y agujas delgados deber_n utilizarse para coser tejidos ligeros evitando asi que 6stos se puedan echar a perder. Cosa tejidos gruesos con una aguja Io suficientemente gruesa como para que pueda penetrar el tejido sin que el hilo de la aguja se deshilache. En la caja de agujas hay una aguja de cada tamaSo 11, 14, 16, 18, y una de tal6n azul del tamaSo 11.
Choix de I'aiguille et tissu Pour les coutures normales, utilisez une aiguille n°11 ou 14. On devrait utiliser du fil fin et une aiguille fine avec les tissus 16gets pour ne pas les endommager. Les tissus Iourds n6cessitent une aiguille assez grosse pour percer le tissu sans effilocher le fil de I'aiguille. Dans un jeu d'aiguilles, il y a une aiguille de chaque grosseur 11, 14, 16, 18 et une aiguille _ bout bleu.
