MILWARD Green self-threading hand needles are made to help reduce fuss when starting a mend, especially if threading a small eye slows you down. The pack includes 6 needles in sizes 4–8, using a slotted eye that lets you pull thread into place rather than feeding it through from the end. Guide thread into the slot with light pressure and check stitch tension as you sew, helping the thread run smoothly without catching on the needle.
