Description
Hand sewing needles are the tool every repair starts with. Inside the pack are 6 pieces. Produced from steel.
Anyone sewing different fabrics keeps several sizes ready and swaps, rather than attempting everything with one. A needle is a wearing part: after long work it goes blunt, and the sound of each stitch tells you before your eyes do. 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 hand sewing needle in Silver is suitable for
- Darning and mending
- Sewing on buttons and trims
- Work at the sewing machine
Frequently asked questions
Which size should I pick?
The fine one for cotton and silk, the strong one for denim and coat fabric. An assortment in the box takes the decision away, because the right size always lies alongside.
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.
Are they good for embroidery too?
Embroidery needles have a larger eye and often a blunt point so they run between the threads. On counted work that is the difference between pleasure and struggle.
