Beaded Stitch Picker/Needle Threader Set Red Gold

Description

This regal red and gold beaded stitch picker/needle threader set is a must for every stitcher. Threading a needle and ripping out stitches can be two of the most frustrating, but necessary, things a needleworker does. Having the right tools makes all the difference. There are photos demonstrating how the thread picker and the needle threaders are used. Even the best needleworker sometimes makes mistakes. Frogging (rip it, rip it) is never fun, but at least we can make it easier. The thread picker consists of beads that are threaded on nylon coated wire and crimped in place to minimize wear on the wire at the eye of the needle. The needle is a #24 tapestry needle, commonly used in cross stitch, needlepoint and hardanger. The beaded tail adds beauty and function by allowing the stitcher to hold on to the needle while removing those stitches that need to come out. It also makes it easier to find when you flick it across the room as you race to rip out your frustrations. These brightly colored beaded threaders are approximately 3/4" (19 mm) and flat so that you can grip them. They will easily thread tapestry needles up to size 26 with floss, pearl cotton, silk, etc. So easy to use. Slide the wire loop thru the eye of the needle; insert thread thru the wire loop; pull the wire loop back thru the eye of the needle and the thread comes with it. Voilà!! *** They are NOT guaranteed to thread sewing needles or beading needles. ***
