Description

They are noticeably finer than standard dressmaking pins, making them particularly useful for silk, organza, chiffon, tulle, lace, fine cotton lawn and other sheer or loosely woven fabrics. The fine shaft slips through delicate fibres with minimal disruption, helping to avoid snag marks, distorted weaves and visible pin holes.

The resin heads are easy to grip and easy to spot against fabric, while the 38mm length gives you enough shaft to work with without feeling bulky or obtrusive.

These are also the standard stainless steel entomology pins used by collectors and scientists for mounting insects and botanical specimens, making them equally at home in a sewing room or on a specimen board.

Packaged in a bright yellow sliding lid tin, the 100 pins are easy to store and keep close at hand.

Each pin measures 38mm long and 0.45mm in diameter. The tin measures 80 x 55 x 16mm and the pack weighs 30g.

Care: Store in a dry place.
