When working with tough materials like leather, you need a needle that slices through cleanly and delivers flawless, professional results. SCHMETZ Leather Needles feature a specialized LL left twist point that easily pierces leather and similar materials, creating strong, precise and angled stitches. From handbags to belts to one-of-a-kind projects, achieve smooth, even stitches. Take leatherwork to the next level with strength, precision, and a finish you’ll be proud to show off. Key features of the Leather Needle The cutting point LL (left twist point) easily penetrates leather and similar materials. It also creates an angled stitching line, which gives the seam a decorative look. Please note: Leather Needles are NOT suitable for textiles due to their cutting point, as woven or knit fabrics can be damaged during sewing. Choose a longer stitch length to stop the stitches from ripping. When locking the seam, make sure the sewing thread is not shredded. Makers Tip The longer the stitch length, the easier it is to see the angled appearance of the stitch and, as a result, the decorative effect of the seam. This effect can be enhanced further by using a thick sewing thread. Use sparingly on soft faux leather, as the fabrication is prone to damage and may distort the stitches. In such cases, it is best to try the SCHMETZ Microtex needle first.
