Frequently Asked Questions

What is a blunt needle and when should I use one?
A blunt needle has a rounded tip rather than a sharp point. It’s designed to pass between the threads of woven fabric rather than piercing through them — making it ideal for cross stitch, tapestry, and needlepoint where you’re stitching through pre-existing holes in the fabric.

What thread or yarn can I use with these needles?
The large eye accommodates a wide range of materials including standard embroidery floss (such as DMC), stranded cotton, tapestry wool, and fine to medium yarn. The three sizes let you match the needle to your thread weight.

Which size needle should I use for cross stitch?
For 14CT Aida fabric, a size 24 or 26 tapestry needle is standard. For 11CT, a size 22 or 24 works well. This set’s three sizes cover the most common cross stitch fabric counts.

Are these needles rust-resistant?
Yes. The needles are made from stainless steel, which is naturally rust-resistant and stays smooth over time for easy stitching.

How should I store the needles?
The included storage box keeps your needles organized and protected between projects. Store in a dry place away from moisture to maintain the stainless steel finish.
