Pony black sharps hand-sewing needles with white eye, sizes 3–9, folder of 20.
Pony’s black sharps are a practical choice for everyday hand sewing — and a particularly welcome option for anyone with a nickel allergy, as they are not nickel plated. The non-reflective black surface reduces glare, while the contrasting white eye makes threading noticeably easier on the eyes.
Sharps are the most widely used hand-sewing needle for general domestic work. They sit at a medium length — longer than quilting betweens, shorter than straws — with a sharp point and a small, round eye that accommodates standard thread without compromising the needle’s strength. This folder contains 20 needles in a mixed range of sizes 3 to 9, suitable for a variety of fabrics and thread weights.
