Spiral Eye Needles
Has anybody else used this? I found this nifty little needle when I first started cross stitching because I washorrible at threading my needles... I love this! While its not good for everything, like when I am burying the thread Im finishing because the end is slightly fatter than normal needles, it does save me lots of time when I accidentally pull my thread out of my needle, no more licking and trimming the thread over and over....What are your thoughts?
Nice. Ive never seen this kind of needle before. What brand is it? The brand is just that, Spiral Eye Needles. They were invented by a woman in the US and it is made in the USA as well... There is also a cheap copy of it called the one second needle, of which I read is made in China and of lower quality (no size selection, and sometimes frays/cuts threads). If you search for Spiral Eye needles itll take you right to the site... Ive heard of these but never seen one close up (good photo!)
Worth thinking about if you have great problems threading needles. Thanks Yenilaia nanasitasue replied at 2013-6-30 04:47 static/image/common/back.gif

Hmmm... I have found a downside to these needles... the threading end feels a little "thicker" than the regular needles, and if you dont pull it all through in one quick motion, it could get stuck in the already stitched threads... To me, theyre very good for when I worked on Dimensions stuff with their often 4~5 threads, since those are a pain to put in needles. but from now on, 2 threads or less, I stick to regular tapestry needles.
Good to know, I like how everyone says what they know.;P I never seem it static/image/common/user_online.gif Yenilaia static/image/common/clock.gif 2013-6-29 14:25 static/image/common/back.gif
