Needle Accessories for Cross Stitch

The small but indispensable helpers for finding, storing and threading needles are gathered here: Hobianna wooden needle minders, a wooden needle box with a stitchable lid, and Hobianna and Milward needle threaders. All needle accessories are in Needle Accessories, Hobianna designs in Hobianna Needle Accessories, pincushions in Handmade Pincushions.

What Each Accessory Does

The magnetic needle minder clips to the hoop edge and holds needle and scissors; the wooden needle box stores tapestry needles of different sizes apart and its Aida-style lid can be stitched to personalise it; the threader pulls 2 strands of floss through a size 24–26 eye in one movement, a relief for tired eyes. Bought as a set they complete the basic kit of a cross stitch bag.
