I use the clover needle threaded it is only for small eyed needles and works great for me.

I had a problem threading the needle in the sewing machine, and it was driving me crazy, that I took the needle out to thread it. I didn't have a problem with the old needle, but felt it was time to change it.. I bought the needle threader with the hook, but it was too thick, and wouldn't work on the sewing machine needle..

I don't know if my clover needle threader is defective but mine does not work. I do redwork and it doesn't work on embroidery needles either. It was a waste f money!!
