BOHIN Crewel Needles

Crewel Embroidery Needles are the most versatile and my ‘go to’ type of needle for most types of surface embroidery and stitching.

This is a list of the sizes I use the most and what I use them for:

No. 1: Crewel wool

No. 3: Crewel wool

No. 5: Fine crewel wool, 3-4  strands cotton or silk

No. 7: Three strands cotton; 2-3 strand silk

No. 9: Two strands cotton; 1 strand silk

No. 10: 1 strand cotton or silk
