Prym Taifun Sharps Sewing Needles - No.7

These size No.7 Taifun Sharps needles are ideal for detailed hand sewing, fine fabrics, and dressmaking projects requiring precision.

No, these are specifically designed as hand sewing needles and are not compatible with sewing machines.

'Sharps' refers to a standard type of hand sewing needle, and 'No.7' indicates its size. Smaller numbers (like 1) are larger needles, while larger numbers (like 9) are finer needles. No.7 is a fine needle size.

The needles measure 0.70 mm in diameter and 38 mm in length.

Store them in their original packaging or a designated needle case in a dry location to maintain their condition and prevent loss.

Yes, Prym offers Taifun Sharps needles in various sizes, including combined packs like No. 1-5 and No. 5-9, as well as individual sizes.

Ensure you are using the correct needle size for your fabric. Size No.7 is for finer fabrics; thicker fabrics may require a larger, sturdier needle. Avoid forcing the needle through dense material.

The eye of the needle may be obstructed or the thread may be frayed. Try moistening the thread tip or using a needle threader tool. For size No.7, ensure your thread is not too thick.

Store needles in a dry environment. If minor rust appears, it can sometimes be removed with a fine-grade steel wool or by rubbing the needle vigorously on a pencil eraser. However, significant rust may indicate the needle should be replaced.
