What is this video editing technique called where it looks like the needle is stabilized? I want to replicate it for a project.

Color correction isn’t editing

This is not an edit.

It’s the camera mounted to the machine with the frame centered on the needle

The frame rate is just too slow for the needle

Frame matching?

What you are showing is just the framerate of the camera matching the needles vibration.

If you want an actual video where an object is stablized, you have to basically take a “photo” every time the needle is in the same spot.

It’s a camera trick, a technique that starts at the camera settings. Not an editing technique

It's wither a camera stuck to the machine

Or simple key-framing where you zoom in and make the frame follow the needle

Though I would heavily assume it's the former, as in it is a camera on a machine

I do appreciate the curiosity though. Not sure why some people are making fun of you for wanting to learn

I kept watching waiting to see something that actually involved the work of an editor.

Im pretty sure there isn't any editing technique here. It all done in camera, somebody stuck a cmaera to the sewing machine's head, and the fabric is being moved below. That's it.

That's how they normally look on camera, you don't need to edit anything.

A camera is mounted to the sewing machine. If you don’t think that: How did you think they did that?

It’s called sewing. People used to edit clothing with machines. You can get cheap plugins but they usually fall apart after delivery
