If you want some let me know and I'll put them on my next order with Brewer.

Cathy,
I'll have to make a note of these numbers. The only other number besides the Kenmore 49 that I'd come up with is the Boye 2½.
Are the needles you're talking about flat shank or round shank, and do you have a pic of them? I'm curious as to what the point to the eye looks like.
