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! Package includes 16 needles.
from United States on 02/01/2023 - nice needle I wish I could just purchase a pack of size 9 needles. That is the size I use and like. This needle still bends but it hasn't broken yet.
from United States on 08/15/2022 - Love the needles from John James I just started using the John James 3/9 hand needles
and they are the greatest thing ever to work with. So
fine a stitch with them and the elongated eye makes
it easy to thread three strands of floss.
