John James Tapestry Needles

John James needles have been around since the very start of needle manufacture in the UK. These finely crafted needles are known for their great quality and reliability and are a favorite of mine.

Tapestry, or Cross Stitch, needles have a large eye allowing easy threading of the needle. The blunt tapestry point enables the needle to pass through canvas without tearing or splitting its fibers.

Note the higher the number, the smaller the needle:
Size 22 40.5mm length x 0.94mm diameter
Size 24 37mm length x 0.76mm diameter
Size 26 34mm length x 0.61mm diameter
Size 28 32.5mm length x 0.53mm diameter
