Stitchers work it in different ways: some run many stitches onto the needle in one pass, some take one stitch at a time, and some pull through every two or three stitches. Lecien includes four lengths so you can match the needle to the way you stitch. The threader pulls thick thread through the eye.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSmartisans carries all six sashiko needle packs in the \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/sashiko-needles\"\u003esashiko needles\u003c\/a\u003e collection, along with \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/olympus-sashiko-thread\"\u003eOlympus sashiko thread\u003c\/a\u003e in 22-yard skeins and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/sashiko-thimbles\"\u003esashiko thimbles\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinding the needle length that suits your stitching rhythm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStitching sashiko samplers and preprinted cloth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThreading heavy cotton thread with the included threader\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFit and Limits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe longest needle in this set is 2 1\/8 in (54 mm).
