Needles and pins were small tools used for tailoring and medical purposes.[1][3][4][5][2]
Availability[]
Aurora's Whole Realms Catalogue sold sewing needles (4 cp per 10) and pins (3 cp per 10), alongside other tailoring supplies.[1][2]
It also sold extensive medical kits that included many tools, including various curved and straight needles for sewing up flesh.[5]
Usage[]
Garment needles came in a variety of sizes and purposes, including sewing, crocheting, and knitting. Pins and needles were often stored in aptly-named pincushions.[6][7][2]
Before a needle and thread could be passed through a tough material like leather or wood, a hole would be prepared with a tool such as an awl or a delicate drill.[8]
Similar medical needles were used to sew flesh instead of fabric.[5]
Magic[]
- Avoidance required a magnetized needle to cast.[9]
- Deeppockets required a small golden sewing needle.[10]
