Sewing With Knits

Here is some handy information I thought you might like to read, I found it here

Hope you find it useful too

Sewing with knits is very different than sewing with woven fabrics. Once you get acquainted with the actual difference, many think it is actually easier. A few simple rules can help.

You don’t need any special attachments or special machine. You will find that always using cotton wrapped polyester thread helps. There are several good brands on the market. The 100 percent polyester is less expensive but not nearly as good because it itself is very apt to fuzz, snarl and break at the needle.

Secondly, you need to use a ballpoint or all-purpose needle. I like the ballpoint best; they actually come sized for heavy, medium and fine points for use with the different weight knit fabrics.
