I use crochet cotton. It doesn't stretch and is very strong. I use it double and it makes a nice knot. A cruved needle works great but is not a necessity. As long as the needle has a big enough eye to get the thread through and is thin enough to go through your fabrics. I have knotted literally well over 100 quilts with 3 or 4 layers of batting for warmth and have had no problems with this. Enjoy.
