1) Sharp Needles: Always use SHARP needles (not ball-point) for Fuwari designs. Also - for best results we recommend you use a new needle for each design.
2) Needle Size: A needle size of "80/12" is used for best results. A smaller needle (ie: 75/11) is too thin to handle the added stress of the thicker thread and will result in a broken needle.
3) Ball-Point Needles: In a word... "Not for Fuwari". The ball points are not able to easily pass through the special pads used by Fuwari designs.
