Similar to tatting, but using a needle instead of a tatting shuttle. The advantage to needle tatting is you can use a variety of fibers. Each needle is sized for various fibers. Use the #8 extra fine for size 80, 70, 60, and 50 thread. Use #7 fine for crochet cotton sizes 50, 40, 30, and 20, and pearl cotton sizes 12 and 8. Use #5-0 for crochet cotton size 20 and 10, and pearl cotton size 5. Use #3-0 for pearl cotton size 3 and smaller sport/baby weight yarns. This package contains four needles in sizes #7, #5-0, #3-0, and N11 #8, and three tatting needles for threads. Made in the USA.
