I've been using this for years. It's a sewing needle that has had the eye cut off until there is just a small vee left. It has been filed and sanded to open the vee just a little.

And thank you Chris. I asked Mrs Ave about this and was told to keep my hands off her ‘good needles’ so I’ll have to buy my own at the weekend.

Yes, I got the same warning. I just found a small pack of cheap needles ( about a dozen ) at the grocery store and bought those.
