🧵 Specialized needles
The DMC 1764/1 Bead Needles are technical accessories designed for those who work with small-diameter beads in decorative embroidery and DIY costume jewelry. The main feature of these needles is their narrow eye, which allows them to pass easily through seed beads, rocailles, and glass beads without getting stuck, keeping the thread taut during work.
The package includes 6 nickel-plated steel needles in two different sizes: 4 needles size 10 (length 4.8cm) and 2 needles size 12 (length 5.5cm). This variety allows you to choose the needle best suited to the bead diameter and the type of project, from fabric embroidery to creating bracelets and necklaces.
🧬 Nickel-plated steel: why it makes a difference
Nickel-plated steel is the material chosen by DMC to ensure strength and smoothness. Nickel plating creates a smooth surface that does not scratch glass or crystal beads, preventing damage during repeated stringing. This treatment protects the needle from corrosion caused by prolonged contact with hands and ambient moisture, maintaining quality over time.
The pointed tip is calibrated to penetrate fabric without widening the fibers, while the narrow eye is reinforced to withstand thread tension during work. This combination makes the DMC 1764/1 needles suitable for both delicate projects on organza and tulle and more robust work on cotton and linen.
📦 Two sizes, endless possibilities
The package includes 4 needles size 10 (length 4.8cm) and 2 needles size 12 (length 5.5cm). Size 10 needles are ideal for beads with a medium hole (2-3mm diameter), such as 8/0 rocailles and plastic beads. Size 12 needles, longer and thinner, are perfect for 11/0 and 15/0 seed beads, Japanese glass beads, and work requiring millimeter precision.
The extra length of the needles makes it easier to string multiple beads in sequence, reducing working time in jewelry projects. For decorative fabric embroidery, the pointed tip easily passes through multiple layers without bending the needle, maintaining precision even in the densest stitches.
🧶 How to use them best
For beaded embroidery on fabric, use size 10 needles with DMC two-strand embroidery thread or waxed cotton thread. Secure each bead with a backstitch to ensure hold and uniformity. For projects on tulle or organza, prefer size 12 needles, which minimize visible holes on delicate fabric.
In DIY costume jewelry, DMC 1764/1 needles work perfectly with nylon thread, silicone elastic thread, and thin metal thread. The narrow eye keeps the thread in place during the stringing of long sequences, preventing beads from slipping off before closing the jewelry. For bracelets and necklaces with seed beads, size 12 needles allow you to create complex patterns without difficulty.
✨ Why choose DMC 1764/1 Needles
The main problem with generic bead needles is the eye that is too wide, which leaves visible holes in the fabric and does not hold the thread well during work. DMC 1764/1 needles solve this problem with a calibrated eye that passes through 11/0 and 15/0 seed beads without widening the bead hole, keeping the work clean and professional.
DMC quality guarantees needles that do not bend during intensive use and maintain a sharp tip even after dozens of passes through dense fabrics. Compared to inexpensive needles that oxidize or break, DMC nickel-plated steel needles last for years, making the investment worthwhile for those who work regularly with beads.
🎨 What you can create
DMC 1764/1 needles are versatile for decorative embroidery on evening dresses, bags, and textile accessories, where beads add light and three-dimensionality. In DIY costume jewelry, they are perfect for seed bead bracelets, glass bead necklaces, rocailles earrings, and Miyuki bead rings.
👩🎨 Who it is suitable for
These needles are suitable for all levels, from beginners who are approaching beaded embroidery to experts who create professional costume jewelry. The variety of sizes in the package allows you to experiment with different techniques without having to buy separate needles, making the kit ideal for those who are starting.
They are chosen by embroiderers who decorate wedding dresses and theatrical costumes, hobbyists who create DIY jewelry for themselves or to sell, and professional artisans who work on commission with high-quality beads. The package of 6 needles always guarantees a replacement available in case of breakage or loss.

📌 Important note
The package includes 6 needles in two different sizes (4 size 10 needles + 2 size 12 needles). The needles are precision tools: handle with care to avoid bending. The nickel plating protects against corrosion but does not make the needles indestructible. Store in a dry environment to maintain quality over time. Not suitable for beads with a hole smaller than 0.3mm.
