My answer is the reading glasses from WM! I had a Clover desk threader - broke on the 2nd or 3rd needle I tried to thread with it. Plus, the needles I use (Roxanne) the wire is too thick with most of the readily available threaders. I love the 3 pack of glasses from WM! About $9 for the 3 pr. instead of the $12-20 that most of the single pairs range. I have them in all different strengths all over the house for different purposes. Just can't get used to the progressive lenses and the prescription lenses I have aren't strong enough. Eye doc said to get drugstore glasses in whatever strength I needed for needlework.
