Grip needles for hand sewing

Hand-sewing thick fabric, or stitching patches and other items with stiffbackings, can be tough on your fingers. Use these Needle Pullers from EverSewn to more easily draw the needle through the fabric. The flexible fingertip covers have small holes for ventilation. Each also has a bumpy surface for increased grip. This enables you to push the needle in and pull it through with less hand strain. The silicone stretches to fit most finger sizes. The set contains one medium-sized and one small-sized needle puller to fit a thumb and fore finger. The open tip accommodates longer fingernails comfortably without ripping.
