The last time I bought needles ,they didn't have what they call large eye .I would say that is the way to go.Yes for most of the embroidery i do ,i use 11 or 12 as far as needle size..Some people on here will say you need the ball point needles for knits ........For the most part i just use the sharp tip.It turns out fine .But....maybe what I do is not as delicate as what others do. It wasn't until I joined here did I hear about needing to use a different needle for different types of material. As far as the needle you have ,not sure as all mine are just plain silver. I have also used a regular needle not for embroidery .Depending on what i am doing it works ok also. Hope this helps you. When I first got my 770 machine I broke a needle first thing. irritating isn't it? Rosemary
I think I need to buy all those needles, I may be it using different kinds of clothes in the future. Oh its really irritating, just glad that we have sew forum like this one. It took a week find out why my thread often break, and i just found out yesterday that it was the needle that is bend. thank you once again Rosemary
