Hi, can anyone confirm the official needle sizes to be used for the different size aida cloths? Example , my DMC store advises needle no 26 with 14 count aida, but the other store gives me needle no 24.

Thanks.
Amy

Comment by Amy: Me also think same. I choose my own needles when it is a small piece of work.
I tend to use a no 28 for almost everything. It is just what I prefer. I will use a no 26 in a pinch but I just find that 28 seems to stitch more smoothly for me....
