Have you ever tried to sew with a dull needle? It's a total nightmare! That's why I was so excited to try out the Needle It Up set. And let me tell you, these needles are SEW GOOD!
First of all, the titanium coating is a total game changer. It protects against wear and tear, which means less need for pesky sewing alterations. Plus, the reinforced blade boosts needle stability and reduces breakage. As someone who has gone through many a needle in my time, this is a huge plus.
But let's talk about the real reason you're here: embroidery. These needles are perfect for single and multi-head embroidery, and the new scarf design with scarf chamfer means less skip stitches and less needle breakage. It also protects the hook, which is a definite bonus. I've used these needles on knitted, woven fabrics, microfiber, and leather with great success.
Now, let's get into the pro con list:
Pros:
- Titanium coating protects against wear and tear
- Reinforced blade boosts needle stability and reduces breakage
- New scarf design reduces skip stitches and protects the hook
- Suitable for a variety of fabrics, including knits and leather
- Great for embroidery
Cons:
- Only comes in one size (80/12)
- Can be a bit pricey compared to other needle sets
Overall, I am so impressed with the Needle It Up set. As someone who loves to sew custom pieces and experiment with different types of stitching (gathering stitch, anyone?), I know that having a good needle is key. These needles have definitely helped me take my sewing mastery to the next level.
Bottom line: If you're a sewist who likes to dabble in monster sewing and creative sewing, these needles are for you. They may be a bit pricey, but the quality is worth it. I give the Needle It Up set a 9/10!
