Never Struggle to Thread a Needle Again!

Spiral Eye Needles are the original side threading needle invented by Pam Turner. “If I was going to fix the needle, I was going to fix everything.”

Side threading needles are easy to thread, stay threaded, and won’t shred your thread. The slot on the side of the Spiral Eye Needle’s eye goes into a channel. This channel includes a “stop bump” that locks your thread inside the eye. The stop bump also adds to the strength of the needle across from the opening.

Made out of surgical grade stainless steel Spiral Eye Needles will never rust. And they have no nickel plating to wear off or kick up nickel allergies.

Spiral Eye Needles are made in Minnesota by a small family business in very small batches in a wide variety of types and sizes of needles. This allows for precision manufacturing. “I am very proud to have my needle made in America.”

How to Thread a Spiral Eye Needle

You thread a Spiral Eye Needle in a spiral motion.

• Loop the thread.

• Make it snug.

• Move it down the length of the head of the needle.

• When you feel the thread hit the slot draw the loop of thread downward into the slot…then up and into the eye.

Notice in the video you can actually hear the thread snap and lock into the eye.
