Nana,
I iz here.
The Boye #8 needle is also known as a 1x4 or GG. They are NLA. I thought that the MY1014 might work as a sub, but in rechecking it I see that it will be too long and the shank is too large. I don't see any other needles that will sub due to the thin size of the shank. The shank of the Boye #8 is measured at 1.4 mm and most other needles that we use measure in at 2.02 mm.
