Overview
A set of DMC tapestry-style hand needles for cross stitch, three packs covering sizes 22, 24 and 26 for 18 needles total.
Despite being filed under a knitting needle category on some listings, these are hand sewing needles sized for cross stitch and embroidery, not knitting needles, and the size range spans mid-count to fine fabric. Buying all three sizes together covers most common Aida and evenweave counts instead of guessing a single size in advance.
- Sizes 22, 24 and 26 included
- 18 needles total
- Blunt-tip tapestry style for cross stitch
- New sealed packaging
Who it's for
Cross stitchers and embroiderers who want a stocked range of needle sizes on hand, especially anyone working across more than one fabric count. Not for knitters, who need an entirely different needle type.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Three sizes cover most common cross stitch fabric counts
- 18 needles total across the set
- From an established needle brand
- Mislabeled as knitting needles in some listings
- Not usable for actual knitting
Performance notes
DMC's tapestry needles have a blunt tip and a larger eye built to pass between woven threads rather than pierce fabric, which is what makes them suited to counted cross stitch on Aida and evenweave. The three sizes bracket most common stitch counts, with the smaller 26 for finer fabric and the larger 22 for bulkier thread.
