[Nfb-krafters-korner] Needle Threaders--Wire is measured by its gauge

[Blindhands at aol.com]

Hi Lorraine,
 
Actually, this fellow told me that he thought the needle threader that I  had 
with me was around a 26 or 28 gauge.  He also told me that I needed to  look 
for a "harden" wire.  He explained to me that the wire comes in soft,  medium 
and harden.  I took that as being stiffness
 
Since you use these size gauges, do you think the 28 gauge would be thin  
enough to go through an eye of a sewing machine needle if it was bent in  half???
 
I havve to find a ride up to AC Moore as I believe that is where I will  find 
what I am looking for.
