The blunt rounded end of a Tapestry Needle slips easily through the holes of canvas or into the weave of fabric without snagging or piercing. The long oval eye carries more than the usual number of strands of yarn.
Chenille needles are sharp-pointed and long-eyed like embroidery needles but run only in the upper size range like tapestry needles. They are slightly shorter than embroidery needles and the longer eye allows multiple strands of some threads to slip through more easily. Chenille needles are currently being recommended for ribbon embroidery. 6 per package.
A totally new way to hold DMC embroidery floss. The floss can be instantly loaded onto the StitchBow Floss Holder. The flexible holder maintains the original shape and fullness of the floss skein when storing it and, because the floss is not stretched, it covers the fabric better.
This dazzling, versatile thread can be used for a variety of techniques, from cross-stitch to needlepoint to all types of embroidery and creative stitchery. Stitchers can work with one to six strands, either alone or in combination with floss or other needlecraft threads.
