Handy Hands Pack of 3 (Y9) Yarn Tatting Needles, Gray

Three tatting needles big enough for yarn. Came with handy, easy to understand instructions too, which allowed me to get started learning immediately. I like that the needles came in a handy little plastic tube with a cap so that you can keep them safe and safely. They are sturdy and look nice. There's also a needle threader.

Needles are used for tatting.nice

I appreciate that these are even for sale on here. I couldn't find these in any store. They're a very good quality, just like the smaller sizes. They've held up well. My work is very tight and none of the eyes have broken yet :) Tatting with larger yarn is a whole new experience and totally worth the nominal fee to get these. I like to try "artsy fartsy" stuff, I'm in my 30s :), and verigated sock yarn is perfect for it! I did break the threader :)

I purchased these needles to try a less complicated method of tatting. The needles are sturdy, & I appreciate having the needle threader. That being said, I believe they are marketed as having three different sizes. I cannot tell one from another, nor am I able to find any size labeling on the needles. To me, they all look the same.

Works great

I have never tried tatting with yarn before but found it was fun and enjoyable. These needles are easy to use, the eye is large enough to thread but not interfere with the design. They are sturdy enough to keep from bending and I enjoy use it them.

Can store them in what they came in. Good size selection. Would recommend.

I tried to learn crochet and knitting. Unfortunately it didn't go so well, but I already knew needle tatting and had a fair amount of yarn. I decided to give the yarn size tatting needles a try, and I'm glad I did. The eyes are easy to thread, and the needles are firm enough to hold various yarn weights easily. There is a downside to them of course. They aren't any longer than the tatting needles I use for size 10 and 20 thread, so the needles don't hold as many stitches as I would like them to. However, if the needles were longer, it would be difficult to use them at all, so I can't really consider it a negative. It's a minor inconvenience I'm more than willing to overlook for the sake of being able to do large scale projects.
