Yes. Fine needles could still damage the yarns, I think the ball point just pushes them aside rather than punching a hole through. You could do a test piece then wash to see how it comes out. You know how sometimes tiny holes are not visible in knits until after washing?

<p>Thank you.</p>
<p>Is a ballpoint needle the same as a strech needle?</p>
<p>I have a very thin synthetic fabric that I want to use for a dress, I wanted to line it with jersey, since it's comfortable and I have a jersey that is exact the same color. But I'm really unsure, I have some fine microtex needles but I think they are very sharp so not really a good choice for jersey.</p>

If it is a cotton stretch mix, use a "Ballpoint" needle or you will damage the fabric - I did this this week - not pretty. I guess you should attempt to use the smallest needle relative to the most delicate of the fabrics. You could work your way up if it can take it or if it is not strong enough.
