Chenille Size 18/22 Sewing Needles

JJ18882 Chenille Size 18/22 (6 per pack)

Hand sewing needles by John James

Chenille sewing needles are large eye needles and are identical to a Tapestry or a Cross Stitch Needle in length and in diameter. However, the Chenille point is sharp, rather than round and blunt and is used in the art of crewel embroidery and ribbon embroidery. Originally they were used for chenille work, hence the name.

This pack contains Chenille needles in an array of sizes ranging from size 18 to size 22.

These finer sizes of 18 to 22 are also used in ribbon embroidery and embroidering with Perlé threads.
