Milliners

Sharps/Milliners

Milliners needles are also known as "Straw" needles. They are mainly used for bullion knots or Brazilian embroidery stitches. Milliners needles are extra long with a round eye (which is no widers than the shaft) and a sharp point, allowing for easy manipulation of bullion wraps. They are also best used for off-loom beadwork, loomed beadwork, and bead embroidery.

Sharps needles are a general purpose hand sewing needle.
