Twin Needle Question

Those of you using twin needles on knits, which twin needles do you use--- only the two Schmetz Twin Stretch needles (75s)? Or are you using other twins and, if so, which ones and do they handle knits well enough? None of my entire assortment are marked "universal".

(And speaking of universal, I really prefer sharps for wovens. Just bought a box of 100 Schmetz 80s sharps.)

Phae,

I get the best results on knits with size 75 stretch twin needles (Schmetz, marked 130/705 H-S ZWI). The other twins I have, which I must have bought when I tried some "heirloom sewing by machine" dresses for DGD, just say Zwillingsnadel Twein needle Aiguille double; none are marked universal.
