Very helpful.

I made a series of needlebooks, one for each type and size of needle. I cross stitche ...

That is a fabulous idea! I may have to try that myself. I know that I have bought nearly a dozen gold needles size 24, 26, and 28 so that I don't have to re-thread so often. I found a Threaded needle organizer that has already paid for itself many times over.

Love my 28s. It's finding a good brand that works for a long time. I tarnish needles BAD

This is a good guide. Thank you so much. Using the correct needle can vastly improve our work.

If any of you have trouble with french knots, with the knot part getting stuck on the eye of the needle and loosening, (and then being pulled to the back of your work when you try to tighten the stitch) switch your cross stitch tapestry eye needle to a milliners or straw needle. This needle doesn't bulge at the eye (which makes it a tiny bit harder to thread). The knot slips off the end of the needle and doesn't catch. I only use this type of needle to make bullion knots.

You want a needle size that will slightly open the hole in the fabric, which prevents the thread from becoming frayed. The sizes listed are just a suggestion.
