Clover Gold Eye Chenille Needles (No.22) are excellent for hand stitching with medium-weight yarns, ribbons and thicker embroidery threads. The gold-plated elliptical eye makes threading smooth and fuss-free, while the nickel-plated tip allows the needle to pass cleanly through fabric without resistance.
Don’t know what a chenille needles are? It’s basically a tapestry needle with a sharp or pointy end as opposed to a blunt one.
These chenille needles are the thinnest that I stock within the range of Clover Gold Eye Chenille Needles. However thinner ones are available. Don’t hesitate to email me with your requirements if you cannot find what you need here.
Chenille needles size 22 are sharp-pointed, thick hand-sewing needles with long, wide eyes, making them ideal for embroidery with thicker threads, wool, and ribbons on densely woven fabrics. They are perfect for crewel, ribbon embroidery, and decorative needlepoint.
Gold-plated eyes on chenille needles provide several advantages, primarily focused on easing the threading process, reducing thread damage, and increasing comfort during embroidery, quilting, and crafting with thick threads or ribbons.
The steel construction provides durability, smooth operation and bend-resistance, ensuring the needles maintain their shape even when working with thick threads and heavy fabrics. Because steel is more rigid than aluminium, these needles are less likely to bend or break under tension.
Each pack contains six needles and is compact enough to store easily in any sewing kit. Size No.20 is perfect when you need the strength of a chenille needle but with a slimmer profile.
