Wrong. I compared this needle to my other favorite yarn needle and found that the eyelet is slightly different and that difference makes these needles better than the ones I had. I don't remember what brand it was, but now I have a new favorite needle. I had no problem threading the worsted cotton into the needle I chose for this and the eye was not too big to thread through the back. I knitted the purl stitches on knitting needles no. 5 (3.75 mm). Putting on acrylic worsted is even easier. I don't have any wool to try so someone else will have to do a wool review. I had no problem with thread double-combed (eight-ply) cotton yarn through the largest eyelet needle. Also, they come in a small round container with a lid, and each size is more than one. I gave something to a beginner knitter so she can start her journey with the right supplies. I gave her a container and if I lose the ones I kept I will try to buy them again.
