I had one and, for the life of me, couldn't find it when I had a hundred or so machine cut ends to bury. So, I dug out a tapestry needle, a dental floss threader and went to work. 1. Bury the needle so the eye is close to the thread ends. 2. Thread the floss threader through the eye-it goes in easily and 3. Place the big end around the cut ends and pull them through-if I feel like it I'll use a crochet hook to pull them through faster, then 4. Pull the floss threader with the cut ends-the needle is threaded and you can finish pushing it through to bury the ends. Worked great for me, but I'm still keeping an eye out for that needle. Hope it shows up some day.
