This collection includes a variety of embroidery needle types, such as crewel, chenille, and tapestry needles. Each is designed for different threads and techniques, helping you achieve the best results with your chosen fabric and stitching style.
How do I choose the right size embroidery needle?

Do the needles work with multiple types of thread?
Most embroidery needles are versatile enough to use with cotton, silk, wool, and synthetic threads. Just match your needle size to the thickness of the thread to avoid fraying or difficulty passing through the fabric.
