Clover Gold Eye Embroidery Needles Size 3-9 - 16 Pack

Work as expected

I really like these needles. They work pretty well. One of them did break as I was using it (I have a firm grip) but there are plenty of needles and the one I am using now as not broken after a lot of use. The needles are not very blunt and can penetrate the skin but as long as you are careful you should be fine.

Needed an array of needles at a reasonable proce and this offered both so I ordered them hoping they would be of good quality and pleased that they were. I embroider and these are perfect for that. With the varying sizes and eye widths and lengths they can be used for different threads and stitches. These would also work for cross stitch projects as well as felt and various others. They are sturdy without being too thick and are not cheaply thin and bendable either. These are a really great deal for the price compared to the local craft store where I live. I am happy with this purchase and would recommend them.

The needles are sturdy and very expensive looking

Works just like expected

Nice set of needles, not available to me locally, happy to receive them

I have always felt that Clover sewing and quilting tools from Japan were the highest quality. So when I needed more needles for my redwork embroidery and my Big Stitch hand quilting, I chose Clovers Gold-Eye Embroidery Needles in the sizes 3-9 package. The gold on the eye makes the needle easier to see to pick it up and to thread it. The shape and size of the eye also enhances the threading. It is perfect for the often larger threads used in Big Stitch quilting. I have used size 8 perle cotton threads, 10wt. crochet threads, 12 wt. Sulky threads, 30wt. cotton threads, all with relative ease in these needles. The package comes with multiple sizes so you can choose which one your thread requires. The interior of the eye is well polished so that the thread does not shred while using the needle. And I cant remember ever bending a Clover embroidery needle as I worked. As a quilting teacher, I recommend these Clover Embroidery needles to all my embroidery/Big Stitch hand quilting students.

I used this to sew doll clothes. I have only used one needle so far. It glides in and out of the fabric so smoothly.

I always buy the Japanese brand Clover products. High quality throughout. These needles are plenty sharp, but I’m disappointed to find the holes narrow and small, and as expected, even smaller on the smallest needles. Will make do with thread threader.

Not as nice as John James needles, but a very nice quality. The eyes are smooth and easy to thread with crewel wool or embroidery floss, and the price is reasonable. I prefer chenille needles for crewelwork.
