Friday Fun Fact: ancient needles

Sewing has been around for a LONG time. In fact, sewing needles predate weaving!

Check out these needles made of sharpened bone. Bone needles have been around for about 60,000 years!


Metal needles evolved from Bronze Age wire-making technology, and eventually steel needles came around in the 10th century. 


These antiques are amazing and beautiful, but they also make us feel pretty grateful for our smooth, perfect modern needles!
