10 Needles per Packet

DBx1KN: 16x257

Round Shank

DBx1KN: This is a modified version of the 16x257 needle specifically for sewing thin knit fabrics. It has a slender, straight blade with a longer, tapered Thin Ball point and a revised profile around the eye. The slender, straight blade acts the same as using a one size thinner needle with a consistent slim shape. The longer taper of the needle point reduces the penetration resistance in fabrics to minimize needle holes. The profile around the eye is reduced, to avoid the extra penetration resistance the normal bulge causes.
