Three fine sizes
Choose size 8, 9 or 10 for your thread and fabric.
Keep three fine milliners sizes ready for embroidery, pleating and small decorative details. The long straw-style needle has an eye close to the thickness of its shaft, a useful shape when working wrapped stitches.

Choose size 8, 9 or 10 for your thread and fabric.
The long, even profile suits decorative hand stitching.
Two of each size let you keep a replacement ready.
Start with the smallest needle that carries your thread freely. Test on a scrap and choose a larger size if pulling the thread through feels tight. For wrapped stitches, keep the wraps relaxed enough to slide over the eye.
This is the thin assortment, sizes 8, 9 and 10.
No. Milliners have sharp points and a slim, long shape; tapestry needles have rounded points for existing fabric openings.
Match the needle’s point and size to your fabric, thread and stitch.
