2-14-25:  Due to covid shortages of blue dye n Germany when Stretch Twin Needles were being manufactured, these temporarily have a red bar instead of blue.  Universal Twin Needles also have a red bar - so be sure to return your Stretch Twin Needles back into the plastic package to clearly identify them as Stretch - the ones to utilize on knit hems.
