Self-Threading Sewing Needle

With the aging of America, more and more people are finding it difficult to perform the relatively simple task of threading a needle. Thanks to inventor Pam Turner, the Spiral Eye® needle threads itself through a small opening on the side of the eye. It is the first innovation in sewing needles in decades and has won six prestigious awards for its design.

Traditional needles are made from cheap steel then plated with nickel. They break, rust, lose their point. The Spiral Eye® Needle is made of 100% surgical stainless steel. Using the stainless steel means it won't break, it won't rust, it won't lose its point, and it is hypoallergenic. And it still can be picked up with a magnet if you drop it.

Three needles, one each: size 24, 22, 20 all tapestry (blunt) point cost $16.00 for the set.
