Sharps Needles: "Sharps" are general-purpose hand-sewing needles. They are typically of medium length compared to other types of specialty needles, with a sharp, fine point for easy piercing of fabric. The eye is relatively small compared to that of, say, embroidery needles, thus requiring thinner threads. All these traits make sharps needles versatile and easy to control.
Needle Sizes: For hand-sewing needles, the larger the size, the smaller and finer the needle. Smaller needle sizes like a size 1 or 2 are best suited for heavier fabrics while larger sizes (e.g., 10 or 12) are finer for use on lightweight fabrics.
