Package of 4 thick sashiko needles with large eyes. Needles measure 0.91 mm thick and 2 in/ 5.1 cm long.

Made by Tulip in Hiroshima, Japan since 1948, these needles are strong but flexible, with very sharp tips. They resist warping and breakage while gliding smoothly through fabric, making it easy to create multiple stitches at a time. These thicker needles are recommended for looser weave fabrics or stitching with thicker threads/yarn and are easier to handle than thinner varieties.

Tulip needles come in a small cork-sealed tube, inside a beautiful, giftable box finished with a tiny red tie and tag.
