We are almost done!!! Today’s needful thing is also essential for any wool appliqué! Chenille needles…now why do we need chenille needles?…I use the #24 for my Valdani #12 wt. threads for hand stitching my embroidery stitches…it has a sharp point, it is fine and strong with a big eye for threading the perle cotton…The #24 is little…it will not shred your wool…and you can control it to make tiny stitches too! You will not be disappointed in this needle…but what about the #22? I use the #22 with anything thicker than a #12 perle…so #8, #5 …When making larger stitches…I also might use a #22 when I double the #12 thread and/or when I am making colonial knots! Do you know about a colonial knot? I never make French knots ever…I am sure there are a few of you out there who have learned this knot from me…it is the best isn’t it!!! So for the special on our Primitive Gathering needles I am offering a combo at a nice price…so its like getting more than one pack free! 3 of each size needle for $12.00!!! I never put these on sale because they more than a little labor intensive! So stock up woolly ladies!
