Description
Hand sewing needles are the tool every repair starts with. It measures 70 mm. The pack holds 2 pieces. Made from steel.
The needle decides the stitch: too blunt and it pulls threads, too thick and it leaves holes in the weave. 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.
What Prym hand sewing needle 2 in Silver is suitable for
- Hand sewing and basting
- Darning and mending
- Sewing on buttons and trims
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.
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.
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 do I thread more easily?
Cut the thread smooth, hold it against a pale background and bring the needle to the thread rather than the other way round. A threader takes over on tired evenings.
