Printable Machine Needle Size Chart
This one-page sewing machine needle size chart is for home sewers, beginners, and anyone sorting needles by fabric weight. It lists EU and US sizes in columns, with fabric examples in each row: 60/8 for very fine fabrics like silk chiffon, organza, and voile; 65/9 for fine fabrics like lawn, batiste, and lightweight silk; and 70/10 for light fabrics like lightweight cotton, silk, and lining. It also notes that higher numbers mean thicker needles for heavier fabrics.
