double eye needle
#1
Have anyone used this needle in their sewing machine? The LQS owner said it forms a unique look when using two different colours of thread. There must be a trick to this because on my Husqvarna only the thread in the lower hole of the needle shows, the thread in the upper hole does not catch at all.

Never heard of this. I hope someone here knows how to use it. Did you Google it to try to find instructions?
Here's some instructions. Very interesting!!

Thanks ladies. I read some of the posts. I tried to make it work on my machine - doesn't. I never thought of putting two threads through on one needle.
Love this site. I feel I have a whole bunch of new best friends who I have coffee with every morning.
