Schmetz Super Nonstick Universal Needles Size 90/14 (100-pack)

Universal needles have a slightly rounded point that works on most woven fabrics and many knits. They are the default household needle and the right starting point when the fabric is ordinary cotton, poly-cotton or linen.

Schmetz Universal needles, super nonstick coating, size 90/14 — medium-heavy, for denim, canvas, quilting through layers and heavier thread. Pack of 100. The non-stick coating stops adhesive from fusibles and sticky stabilizers building up on the needle.

Use for: Wovens and stable knits; everyday sewing.

Change the needle every 8 hours of sewing or at the start of each project — a dull universal is the most common cause of skipped stitches.
