since the gutermann mara 70 seems to be what is recommended for most hammock related projects (as it's given away with RbtR orders and it's what Dutch sells) I was wondering about proper needle type for this thread. I've read on several sites that you should match the needle to the thread type and indeed on Gutermann's product detail page for Mara 70 it states "Recommended Needle Size" 90-100/14-16.
Just curious because from my research of these forums and other sites most people seem to recommend a 70/10. I just recently got into sewing and I'm wondering if the problems I'm having is because I'm using a 70/10 with the Mara 70 thread when the manufacturer recommends using a 90/14 or a 100/16. my current problem is uneven, crooked stitches btw...
thoughts on using 90/14's with the Mara 70?
