Embroidery sewing needles are sometimes referred to as Crewel Needles. Embroidery needles are similar in length and diameter as a Sharp needle and they have a sharp point. However, they have a long, extra large eye, which makes threading the needle so much easier when using multiple strands of stranded cotton embroidery thread.
Sizes 1, 2, 3 and 4 are ideal when embroidering on heavy fabric with twisted yarn and this is often called crewel work. The most popular size and commonly used in embroidery is a size 7 however the finer sizes of 8, 9 and 10 are fabulous to use if you prefer a finer and shorter length of needle.
Having difficulty threading the needle! Then use an Embroidery needle for general sewing the long eye makes threading so much easier and quicker!
What Other Stitchers Are Saying (100% of reviews are from verified purchases)
from United States on 05/16/2019 - The best It's so strong. Doesn't bend as easily as my other ones from DMC.
from United States on 12/11/2015 - Great quality I've tried other brands of embroidery needles to make needle lace, and the eye of the needle has broken, or I've snapped the needle in half. Not so with these crewel needles. I've been using the same needle, for several different needle lace projects, and the needle is still in great condition. I highly recommend these!
