Aluminium Wool/Tapestry Needles

Aluminium wool/tapestry needle is a hand-sewing needle that is useful to needleworkers who do a variety of different craft techniques: cross stitch, embroidery, sewing, crochet, knitting, and others. A tapestry needle is a blunt needle with a large eye. The large eye is useful to needleworkers because it can accommodate threads or fibers that are thicker than ordinary sewing thread. Most tapestry needles are large enough to accommodate crochet thread or embroidery floss, and many are large enough to accommodate yarn as well. Larger tapestry needles are even able to accommodate bulky yarn.

Tapestry needles and darning needles are similar; both types of needles have blunt tips and large eyes. In some cases, there's essentially no difference between what one manufacturer might call a "tapestry needle" and another might call a "darning needle." In other cases, there is a difference in that darning needles can be a bit longer than tapestry needles.Due to this, it's difficult to conclusively say that one is better than the other, so just use whichever one suits your needs best.
