Savina Set 2 Nalbinding Needle Bone & Horn with Large Two-Eyed. Handmade Binding Tool, Multipurpose Weaving/Knitting/Stitching Needles for Craft Work

I was shopping for a new loom hook, stumbled on a Savina hook with bone needle set. They were lovely, and I went flipping through their product line, and found the hook could be bought separately and the bone needle with a horn needle instead. That’s what I did.These are extremely well crafted, smooth to the touch and the gently tapered curve of the horn needle tip is perfectly done.These can function as large yarn needles and are adequately sized to be used to work with reproductions of centuries ago woven fabric styles.Very well worth my money.

Great shipping. Good product. They will come in handy.

The needles are very sturdy as well as pretty. You can easily thread a weight 4 yarn without a threader, but can also thread a thicker 5-6 weight yarn with the help of a threader. I wanted something smooth for picking the weave on a tapestry loom to make a rug. The needle glides easily through weaving warp and makes the whole process a smooth and enjoyable experience.I haven’t used them for their intended purpose - nalbinding, but I can see that they would be excellent for that craft as well. I definitely highly recommend.

I crochet, and have a favored afghan pattern that combines crochet with a type of weaving - these work great for that purpose. The holes are large enough to accommodate 2 strands of yarn (worsted weight). Even if each “eye” weren’t large enough, there’re 2 eyes per needle, so they could still hold 2 strands of a larger weight yarn. The needles themselves are of a nice size - which makes handling them easier during the weaving process - as apposed to a typical yarn needle.One “needle” did arrive bent, or curved - but the instructions do warn that this may happen, and gives instructions on how to correct it with boiling water.Overall? - I’m very happy with this purchase.I receive no compensation or incentives for any reviews I write.

These 2 needles are beautiful and very smooth. They fueel wonderful in the hand. I bought these to learn nalbinding and they are perfect for this ancient craft. The points are perfectly shaped or being able to move between stitching. If you sew, these would be perfect for those sharp corners like collars when you turn them inside right. I know these tools will last a very long time.

I love these needles! Nice to hold. They were delivered quickly. The quality is wonderful. I'd ;one to know where the horn is from. Highly recommend.

These needles are much larger than I expected. Just my perception. They are beautiful, polished smooth. Can't wait to see how they last. Will make afghans much easier to put together. Adds a bit of elegance to a mundane part of hobby.

Not too long and very smooth so they don't snag on the yarn as I'm weaving
