Thin, too small, too expensive for what they are

Eyelets too small for most yarns. Good luck with everything but DC. The opening tabs in front of the eyes (which is probably why you buy them!) are very flimsy. These prices are not worth it at all. There are better options that are more useful and durable. This is an annoying disappointment.

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • old

great for burying overlock thread

I have no idea why my local sewing machine shop (and every other one I've been to) is advising people to use these double ended long drill needles. Trying to put the serger in the eye of the needle is NOT EASY. This darning needle is long enough to safely bury tail and THIS NEEDLE IS EASY to insert tail for pinching. I wish I had found these years ago. Apparently, these needles are not widely used when sewing at home. They should.

Pros
  • handy item
Cons
  • so far so good

Defective product

In theory that sounds like a great stitch pluck. If it works. The small latch on the ones I got was very stiff and couldn't move up and down without force, which probably caused it to break. It's not the seller's fault, it's the manufacturer's fault. There's probably a reason I couldn't find this at my local craft stores. I do not recommend this product unless you bought it from somewhere other than the internet which allows you to return it without additional postage.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Big and chunky
