Description
From basting to sewing on: what the machine cannot reach, the hand does. Supplied as 20 pieces. Made from steel.
A needle is a wearing part: after long work it goes blunt, and the sound of each stitch tells you before your eyes do. For repairs away from home, one needle, a thread and five quiet minutes are often enough. Cutting the thread short and pulling it smooth threads faster than a frayed end ever will. Prym has made sewing notions in Stolberg for generations. The pack states the size, so buying more later stays easy.
What Prym Nähnadeln halblang, Nr. 5-9, sortiert 121306 is suitable for
- Darning and mending
- Embroidery and decorative stitches
- Sewing on the move and while travelling
Frequently asked questions
When do I change the needle?
As soon as it snags, pulls threads or asks for more force than before. At the machine one more rule: after every larger project, since a blunt point punches holes instead of piercing.
What do I need for jersey?
A needle with a rounded point that slides between the loops instead of piercing them. An ordinary point creates small ladders that show up later.
Why do needles corrode?
Moisture and hand perspiration are enough. Dry storage and a quick wipe after work keep them bright; a filled pincushion protects further. A rusty needle belongs in the bin, because it leaves marks on fabric.
How should needles be kept?
In a wallet, a case or on a cushion — sorted, and out of reach of children. Loose needles in a drawer are usually found with a fingertip.
