Tulip Sashiko needles long

Product specifications

The sewing needles by Tulip are made in the Japanese city of Hiroshima. Each needle goes through more than 30 steps in the production process, resulting in beautiful, high-quality needles that are safe to use. The sewing needles are made from nickel-plated steel. The special surface finish gives you strong needles that pass smoothly through the fabric. The sewing needles have a perfectly shaped and finished eye, which prevents your thread from breaking. The carefully designed needle tip allows you to make very neat stitches.

These Sashiko needles have a sharp tip and a large eye, which makes threading multiple embroidery thread a lot easier. The needles are especially suitable for Sashiko embroidery, an ancient Japanese embroidery technique that was originally used to strengthen woven cotton fabrics, but is now more and more appreciated for its decorative purposes.

The Sashiko assortment long needles are in packs with 6 needles:

• 2 x 1.02mm wide and 66.7mm long
• 2 x 0.97mm wide and 44.5mm long
• 2 x 0.84mm wide and 51.5mm long
