When I purchased my Pfaff 545 it had several packages of needles with it including some for leather. I now want to practice with some heavy thread for decorative top stitching. My machine uses regular system 134 needles. How do I order these with larger eye sizes?
I now this is a simple Q. for many but I didn't see an obvious answer when looking on line for needles.
Thanks in advance for the help.

Most companies will have the needles sorted by system and then they will have the size and point type listed on each Item. For example Groz-Beckert - 134-35 - 100 / 16 - R
134-35 is the needle system. 100/ 16 is the size. 100 is the diameter in mm. 100 = 1.00 mm the 16 is a numerical size number. You can use either # however most trimmers in the US refer to needle by the # system. Why?? I have no idea. The R is the needle point type.
