SOHMO Tapestry Needles - Japanese-Made Blunt Needles in 3 Sizes, Pack of 20

The blunt-tip needle every cross stitcher, needlepointer and knitter should have in their kit.

Made in Japan by a needle manufacturer with over 100 years of experience, SOHMO Tapestry Needles feature a smoothly rounded blunt tip that passes between fabric threads without splitting or snagging, plus a large eye for thicker threads, multiple strands of floss and yarn.

Perfect for cross stitch, needlepoint, tapestry, long stitch, candlewicking and finishing knitted garments, these needles are ideal for Aida, evenweave, linen and open-weave fabrics.

20 Needles in 3 Sizes

• 22 gauge – 6 needles | 0.89 × 40.00mm
  Fine size for 18ct or 28ct evenweave and finer threads.
• 20 gauge – 7 needles | 1.07 × 45.50mm
  A versatile size for 14ct Aida, tapestry canvas and most cross stitch.
• 18 gauge – 7 needles | 1.24 × 48.50mm
  Larger size for coarse canvas, chunky wool and seaming knitted garments.

Please note: Tapestry needle sizing works in the usual way — 22 is finer than 18.
