blunted points. Snags and runs in knits, fine silks and
silk-like fabrics are permanent and are almost always
caused by a damaged needle.
Place the flat side of the needle on something flat (needle
plate, glass etc.). The clearance between the needle and
flat surface should be consistent. Never use a bent or blunt
needle.
