This six pack of size 28 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 28 needles are recommended to use with 18 count aida/ 36 and 40 count linen.
