In MacCulloch and Wallis (a famous London store), they advised normal but 70 needle, a fellow Tweeter suggested microtex or sharps - it's bamboozling, but at least everyone agrees that the original advice about ballpoints was wrong!<br /><br />I'll try a higher heat on the iron and will see if I can have any better success with the puckers - thanks for your tips!Liverpool_Fihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06861066556572321448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9024848815719980359.post-41414393215943198302013-05-29T02:23:46.183+01:002013-05-29T02:23:46.183+01:00You have the best fabric!!

Ballpoint needles are only for knit (stretch) fabrics, is it a knit? It looks like it's quite sheer, so you would want an finer gauge needle. I usually stock up on packs of needles that have a bunch of types and on the back a handy chart. You might be able to steam out your wrinkles with your iron, that's what I do when I get puckers.Kim @ craftyNHmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04360253917367722233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9024848815719980359.post-4277660283569529502013-05-27T02:33:16.401+01:002013-05-27T02:33:16.401+01:00I just love your bunnies top!!
