Bohin Milliners Needles Size 1 – Pack of 12

Bohin milliners needles size 1 are long hand sewing needles designed for basting, gathering, pleating and oversewing. Their extra length makes it easier to work longer stitches and pick up several sections of fabric, making them particularly useful for dressmaking and other textile sewing projects.

Also known as fashion needles, milliners needles have a round eye and a long, slender form. They are traditionally associated with millinery and hat making, while their shape also makes them a practical choice for temporary basting stitches, gathering fabric and forming pleats before final stitching.

This pack contains 12 Bohin milliners needles size 1. Within the milliners needle sizing system, size 1 is at the longer and thicker end of the range. This makes these needles a useful addition to a hand sewing kit when a long needle offers greater control or allows you to work several stitches before pulling the thread through.

Made in France from nickel-plated steel, these Bohin milliners needles size 1 suit dressmaking, garment construction, millinery and a variety of hand sewing and textile craft projects.

Keep the needles clean and dry. Store them securely in their original packet or a suitable needle case when not in use to help protect the points.

Safety Notes
