I apologize if this has been posted already but I have a question about needle sizes in relation to thread sizes.
I ordered some unwaxed 1 mil linen thread and am wondering about the corresponding needle size that I should be using. I will be handsewing small items (wallets, pouches, etc.) at 6 stiches per inch. What sized needle should I be looking at?
I'm thinking a size 2 harness needle from C.S. Osborne but I wanted to check before I ordered them.
Also, is there a chart or other reference material that exists with this information?
Thanks!
