I also have these needles in the original Japanese tri fold cardboard pack with a cellophane window, presented on a strip of stiffened gauze. Same needles, different packet!
 
A pack of eight sashiko needles from Clover, ideal for all your sashiko and boro stitching.  Six needles have long eyes make threading easy.  Suitable for fine, medium or thick sashiko threads. The two smallest needles have shorter eyes and are ideal for fine sashiko thread (3ply or 4ply), and are excellent for boro, because they will go through multiple fabric layers quite easily. Two of each size. Gold plated eyes and nickel plated tips. Needle lengths (with thicknesses in brackets) are 50.8mm (0.84mm), 44.5mm (0.99mm), 42.9mm (0.91mm) and 34.8mm (0.89mm).  Good quality needles that are easy to use in a useful selection of sizes.
