Review on 🧡 Bohin Tapestry Hand Needles - Size 28: Perfect Tools for Fine and Delicate Stitching by Summer Hendricks

Revainrating 4 out of 5

No ripstring for eyes

These are by far the best needles I have ever used in my cross stitch career and the only ones I will never run out of. They're smooth, easy to thread, and feel like oil is being pulled through Aida, linen, or even fabric. Many needle brands have ears that will eventually break the thread and waste a lot of thread. These needles don't do this because their eye is smooth and not rough. They are also extremely easy to use despite being small; I almost always get the thread on the first try. The only downside to these needles is that they bend fairly easily, but that happens no matter how small they are, no matter what brand you use. The needles are small, but not so small that you feel like you're not holding anything. They also don't leave a big hole in Hades. I love these needles and will not use any other brand having discovered Bohin and would recommend them to all cross stitchers. Edit: After using half the needles in this pack, I found that they all bend fairly easily, which is one of the downsides of the small size. I've since gone back to a size 26, although I usually work with Aida 18 canvas. I still trust the Bohin brand, just be aware of the flex issue.
