Does anyone know what needle would be best to sew on elastic with a zigzag? Should I use a ballpoint or stretch needle?
Thanks, Peggy

Try both and use the one that works best! Each elastic is different... :(

Match the needle to the fabric and the elastic will be fine.
Hi.
Actually, ball point or stretch or regular needle is not a function of the elastic itself, but of the fabric you will be sewing along with it. A knit fabric such as jersey for T-shirts will require a ball point or stretch needle. A woven fabric will require a regular needle.
Best of luck in all you sewing projects S. FOREST POLAR BEAR SEWING PATTERNS
