FAQ Series: All about Zippers, #3 or #4.5 or #5?
Posted by Jenny Chesnick on
#3 zippers are the all-purpose zippers you can buy at any craft store, and they're what most POP ITH zipper bag designs use. If the design doesn't specify #5, then it is sized for a #3. #3 zippers have teeth that are 3mm wide, and almost always have tape that is 1" wide. #5 zippers have teeth that are 5mm wide, and the tape is around 1.25" wide. #4.5 zippers have teeth that are 4.5mm wide, and the tape is around 1.25" wide, and they usually have a longer "purse pull."
If you want the fun, metallic-look zipper, make sure the teeth are polyester or nylon. You do not want to use real metal or molded plastic in an ITH zipper bag.
What's the point of having two separate designs? What is the difference between the #3 and #5 designs? Nothing really when you look at them completed (which is how you know the design is done well!), but the zipper size is an integral part of the design. Jen thought it would be more simple to adjust the design for the #5 zipper than it turned out to be when she started with the Trendsetter. It's more than just scooting a line or two over. The #5 gets tested and tweaked in each size just like the #3 does before the design gets released.
Can I just "hack" the design for whatever size zipper? When people were hacking the standard #3 design using a #5 zipper, the lining was getting caught in the zipper teeth, and the embroidery machine foot would sometimes hit the teeth and throw the design off. There wasn't enough zipper tape outside of the zipper teeth for the zipper to work correctly and the embroidery foot to have enough room to maneuver. Conversely, if you're putting a more narrow #3 in a #5 design, the tape won't get caught by the stitching/not enough tape in the seam allowance to be secure or there will be too much tape showing which isn't as attractive.
Where can I get zippers? POP shops on Wawak for their #3 Nylon Zippers, especially during their Buy 2 Get 1 Free sales. ZipIt on Etsy is a great source for zippers, both #3 and #4.5 purse pull styles--and there's a 10% off code in our Facebook group! They're currently open limited hours (check their Facebook page for announcements) during the health emergency. For #5 zippers, try MyHandmadeSpace's website or their Etsy shop.
Choose the design option sized for the zippers you would prefer to use! We have these listed as separate designs to hopefully minimize confusion.
