Default Spiral-eyed needles - test results

I was wondering it that was the issue. From an engineer's view point, they
would need smaller size stock (to make the needles) and to re-tool some of
the equipment used. A very expensive undertaking and would require a huge
bit of faith that enough smaller needles would be sold to make up the cash
outlay for a second shop.

Apparently, the space needed for the needle eye is too big to allow
for the smaller sizes of needles. I wondered, but thought it wouldn't
hurt to ask. Oh, well, such is life.

I also sent an email requesting a #28 Tapestry and a #10 sewing needle
with a very sharp point. We'll see.
