embroidery needles (sewing needles, sewing tools, ... Furnishings and Equipment (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Embroidery needles have sharp tips and larger eyes than regular sewing needles, so the eye can accommodate embroidery threads. The sharp tips help the needle penetrate tightly woven embroidery fabrics, as well as felt. They are also sometimes referred to as crewel needles as they are used for crewel embroidery. |
