Pony Crewels Gold Eye Embroidery Needles , pack of 25

These gold-eye pony crewel hand-sewing embroidery needles are a reliable choice for anyone working with conductive thread, whether in a classroom setting or a personal maker project. Their smooth finish and longer eye make them especially helpful when threading thicker, slightly springy conductive threads used in e-textiles. For teachers introducing sewn circuits for the first time, the easy-thread design reduces the usual fiddliness that can slow a lesson down, letting students focus on the creative and technical aspects of their project rather than struggling with tools. They are available from us in two different sizes, 1 & 5 and are supplied as packs of 25.

Both sizes are made from high-quality steel with a polished nickel plated surface that glides cleanly through fabric. This matters when you’re sewing components like LEDs, snaps, or small PCBs onto felt, cotton, or costume fabrics, where drag or snagging can distort the circuit layout. The controlled flexibility of the needle helps it resist bending, even when students are working through multiple layers or thicker materials. Makers will appreciate that these needles hold their shape well over repeated use, especially when stitching conductive traces that require consistent tension.

The gold eye is a practical advantage for e-textiles. Conductive thread can fray more easily than standard embroidery thread, and the smooth, anti-tarnish eye reduces wear as it passes through. The larger eye on these embroidery-style needles also makes them suitable for younger learners or beginners who need a forgiving threading experience.

Whether you’re building a wearable project, adding lighting to textiles, or teaching a full class of students how to sew their first circuit, these needles offer a dependable balance of durability, ease of use, and compatibility with conductive thread. They’re supplied in packs of 25, making them ideal for classroom kits, workshop sets, or individual makers who want a reliable tool for repeated e-textile builds.
