craftsman827 Report post Posted October 6, 2013 I use a overstitch wheel to mark my stitch spaces before I use my awl. I was thinking about using a PRICKING IRON, after seeing one in use by someone on this fourm. My question is, where to purchase one for 5 or 6 per inch without going broke. Like mabey $100.00 ??? WHO MAKES A GOOD ONE , & HOW ARE THEY SIZED ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt S Report post Posted October 6, 2013 Joseph Dixons of England makes them in many standard sizes, and can make em to any size or shape you like. They are sized by length (1/2 inch, 1 inch, 1-1.2 inch etc.) and stitches per inch. http://www.josephdixon.co.uk/products/One_Inch_Pricking_Irons.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I understand stitches per inch, but where is the length measured ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
