MERSUII Pack Of 300 0.8" Metal Black safety Pins/Gourd Pin/Bulb Pin/Calabash Pin Bead Needle Pins DIY Home Accessories , Suitable for the Tailor

I haven't had the production issues with these pins as others have, but there are 300+ of them so they may just be hiding....I use these for marking my knit/crochet work, and they work wonderfully, as expected. I bought them to supplement the 10 that came with my HiyaHiya knitting needle set I had bought earlier and fell in LOVE with them over any other stitch markers I've ever used. I will Definitely be buying more (if or when!) I loose enough of them!My only grouse is slightly personal (doubt it will be an issue for many) as I got them just after the doc cleared me to knit after a carpal tunnel surgery and have consequently found them hard for me to open and close. I am not marking a star for this because I think this is due to my lessened grip strength, though if this continues to be the case, I will update.

These work really well as stitch markers and are so much cheaper than buying the ones that are specifically marketed for knitting (which often cost almost one dollar per pin!!!!). They wouldn't work on the largest of needles, but I have them on size 7's now and there's still a good amount of room to accommodate a larger needle, I would think up to a size 9 or 10. I actually prefer these to any other markers I've used because of how thin they are–they don't get in the way at all.

These small black metal pins, were as stated in the product description. They arrived sealed in a plastic bag. I did not count all of them to verify the quantity; however, I am confident there were probably 300, as there were certainly a LOT of them. I purchased these to use as line/row stitch counting markers for my crochet project, and although they were a bit smaller than I thought (strictly due to my own spacial perception issue, as they were as described), still they worked out quite well for what I intended. While small, there are plenty of them, and they are well made and easy to use. Even with my arthritis issues, I did not have any trouble opening or closing them. My only issue with these, and the reason I took away one star, from this product, was due to how it is packaged. These clips arrive in a sealed plastic bag, which you have to tear or cut open to access, but once you 'open' the bag, they end up getting every where, because there is no way to reseal the bag! When I initially opened them, they spilled everywhere and days later I was finding them all overt the place. If these were supplied in a metal tin, or a plastic dispenser case (like some hair pins), or even a small resealable ziplock bag, it would be much better as they would then probably not end up getting every where (being so small they are easy to lose track of, especially since they are also thin, !!^€and light, and it is easy wto unwittingly track every where.While I would purchase these again, I would first make certain to have a dedicated container set aside for them, to place them in when they arrived, after I opened their plastic bag.

I love these mini safety pins. I always have some in my purse so I can be ready in any situation. They are such great quality. They don’t pop open or break. I love mine so much

I LIKE THIS BRAND THE BEST BECAUSE I USE THEM ALL THE TIME MAKING JOURNALS. THIS BULB ISN'T HARD TO GET SMALL BEADS ON; THEY SLIDE ON WITHOUT A PROBLEM. OTHER BRANDS HAVE A SHAPE ANGLE AND BEADS WON'T SLIDE ON WITH

They are not the best quality, but there are so many of them, it's ok. Some of the pins don't open. I have a couple of heads fall off. I might consider a different manufacturer next time I need these. I only use them as stitch markers on my knitting needles. I don't think I'd rely on them to hold anything. I guess I'm surprised there is a quality issue. How do you mess up a tiny little pin? Now I have to wonder if they are lead based or something. Don't think I'll be putting them in my mouth to find out. OH, and as an after thought. Black pins are a bit hard to find on dark carpet or furniture.

These are very sharp. I got a huge package of 300 for a very small amount of money, so a great bargain. I go through pins by the hundreds as I donate items to charity that must be tagged, and the price cannot be beat.

This product is great. Very nicely made, and came exactly as described. I will be purchasing this again. I don’t normally leave reviews, but this product deserved one.
