Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How does the self-threading side-hole needle work?
A: The side-hole (blind eye) needle has a small open slot on the side of the needle eye. You simply press your thread downward into the slot, and the thread snaps into place through the eye — no need to manually guide the thread through a tiny hole. It makes threading fast and frustration-free.
Q: What fabric types are these stainless steel sewing needles suitable for?
A: These needles work well with a wide variety of fabrics including cotton, linen, wool, and light denim. The three included sizes (3.6 cm, 3.8 cm, and 4.2 cm) allow you to match the right needle to the fabric weight and thread thickness for the best results.
Q: How many needles come in each pack?
A: You can choose between a 12-needle pack (one set of assorted sizes) or a 72-needle pack (six sets of assorted sizes) — great for stocking up or sharing with fellow crafters.
Q: Are these needles rust-resistant?
A: Yes! The needles are made from high-grade stainless steel, which is naturally resistant to rust and corrosion, ensuring long-lasting performance even with regular use.
