Quality English steel chenille needles have a sharp tip with a wide body and a long oval eye.  Chenille #20 is Kari’s all time favorite silk ribbon embroidery needle for 4mm & 7mm ribbons.  Use #22 for 2mm and #18 for 13 mm ribbons.  They can also be used for crewel and wool embroidery, embroidery with pearle cotton no. 3 & 5, smocking with ribbon and so much more.  Want a large eyed needle but need a blunt point?  Choose a Tapestry needle.  Want a variety pack?
