Experience effortless stitching with our Palm Thimble. Palm thimbles are typically worn on the middle finger with the flat plate on the palm of the hand to allow you to push long needles through several layers of fabric. Ideal for Sashiko and Boro stitching, its adjustable size fits any hand and finger comfortably. Its large disk protects your palm while deep dimples secure the needle for seamless hand work. The Palm Thimble is lightweight and has an adjustable ring that will fit most finger sizes.

Details:

  • The flat plate is approximately 3/4" in diameter

How to Use It

  1. Slip the adjustable ring onto your middle finger so the metal disk rests comfortably against the palm of your hand.
  2. Position the eye or end of the needle against the dimpled metal plate.
  3. Use the force of your palm to push the needle through thick fabric layers in a controlled rocking or forward motion.
