Tapestry Needle Without Point is a thick needle with a round and blunt tip, and a big eye. Tapestry needles are ideal for using them on Aida-type cloth to make tapestries or cross-stitch embroidery. They can also be used for sewing/embroidering with tapestry wool yarn.
All Bohin needles are made in Bohin’s factory in France, from nickel-plated steel. The needles go through 27 manufacturing stages, which guarantees an incomparable slide and an irreproachable tip.
The numbering corresponds to the size of each needle, No. 14 being the longest and thickest one, and No. 28 the shortest and thinnest one of the series. No. 22, 24 and 28 are widely used for cross stitch.
Needle sizes:
No. 14: 52.5 mm - ø 1.63 mm
No. 16: 54.5 mm - ø 1.35 mm
No. 18: 50 mm - ø 1.20 mm
