A pack of six sashiko needles from Tulip, 'Hiroshima' needles are ideal for all your sashiko and boro stitching. Suitable for fine or medium sashiko threads.
You may have heard about the special quality of these needles. They are very finely polished, and go through the fabric like a knife through butter! Tulip specialise in manufacturing needles and these really are very special.
(1.02mm x 66.7mm) x 2 needles
(0.97mm x 44.5mm) x 2 needles
(0.84mm x 51.5mm) x 2 needles
The needles are packed in a 'test tube' type plastic storage phial, closed with a little cork stopper. Inside is a tiny piece of paper - this is very important, because it is a piece of anti rust paper! Keep it in the phial with your needles, and they will stay bright and rust free.
Good for medium and fine sashiko threads, #12 perlé cotton, #12 coton à broder etc. They are also good needles for stitching boro inspired project, Indian kantha and kawandi (Siddi) quilts.
These are very good quality needles that are easy to use in a useful selection of sizes.
Tip - open the box and remove the phial from the bottom - that way, the pretty red thread at the top of the box can stay intact!
