This six pack of size 26 DMC needles is the perfect inexpensive option for cross stitch needles. The needles are made with blunt points to minimize the splitting of threads when stitching, and they are nickel plated steel that allows the needle to smoothly slide through the fabric as you are stitching.
*Size 26 needles are recommended to use with 16 count aida/ 32 count linen.
