Perfect for silk ribbon embroidery...chenille needles are large eyed needles and are identical to a tapestry or cross stitch needle in length and in diameter. However, the chenille point is sharp, rather than round and blunt. Our John James Chenille Needles (Size 26) are ideal for the thinnest silk ribbon sizes: 2mm, 3mm and 4mm.
