Aiguilles à repriser en coton, taille 1/5, 10 pièces

Finally got around to mending a favorite sweater with these, and the longer eye made threading the thick yarn surprisingly quick. They’re sharp enough to slide through the fabric without snagging, and the variety pack means I’ll have the right size for patches on different weights of wool.

Threading took me about ten seconds thanks to the long eye, and the sharp point glides through denim without splitting the fibers. The mix of sizes covers everything from sock toes to sweater elbows, so one pack handles it all.

Darning a sock is way less annoying now that I can thread these on the first try — that long eye really makes a difference. The mix of sizes covers everything from thin knits to heavier wool, so the whole mending pile gets done in one sitting.
