Several different colors so you know which size is which. 3 different sizes so you can choose what is most appropriate. A quality Prym product.

Too bad they're being discontinued
I bought two sets of these so I could try knitting with small 2-3" needles before spending $$ on a set of interchangeable circulars. I was able to knit with them!I also use them for their intended purpose and they do a great job weaving in yarn ends. The loops are the same size for all three needles. The picture shows three doubled-over strands of worsted-weight acrylic yarn threaded together through the loop to give an idea of how thick the yarn can be.The nylon loop did pull out of the smallest (green) needle in one set but not the other. I think it's hit or miss, not only for this brand but others. The loop is crimped into the barrel, so it seems to either stay or not, I guess depending on how careful you are. I am now more careful with the others.Sizes (Length w/o loop x Diameter):Blue - 85 x 3.2 mmRed - 70 x 2.7 mmGreen - 60 x 2.3 mmLoop adds 13 mm to length

The Best Tool for Crocheters & Knitters
Absolutely the BEST tool for weaving in yarn ends for crochet and knitted pieces.I think I've tried everything else available and these are definitely going to be my go to needles.I do wish the smallest needle had a bit of a finer point but it works fairly well even with size 10 crochet thread.Even the fuzziest, most roving like yarns easily glide along the shafts without snagging or pulling. And, even the shortest of ends can be pulled through nearby stitches by placing the needle in place and then smooshing the yarn through the loop.After buying these, I'm sorry I purchased the Susan Bates Finishing Needles and the Clover Darning Needles with Latch Hook Eye. Even though the Susan Bates set had the smallest needle and the Clovers were the sharpest; these Pryms were my absolute favorite.If you work with yarns and crochet thread, you really should buy these.

Easiest craft/sewing needles to thread
Arrived when they were expect. Delivery was on a Sunday and received an email from Amazon stating the package was left in our mail box due to no regular mail delivery on a Sunday. What an unexpected email surprise! Amazon went above and beyond my expected delivery expectations even though l have Amazon Prime. The needles came in three sizes and each were a different color for easy to identify. Instead of struggling to put thread or yarn through an regular (or larger) eye of a needle these were extremely easy to thread because of a loop at the end of each needle. In my opinion every crafter or sewer should be aware of these!

Easier to thread thick wool
Easy to thread but the ends are a bit flimsy. I don't see these lasting that long.

Not quite there.
These are a good idea but in my opinion the "eye" needs to be wider to allow thicker styles of wool to be used. Unfortunately they are not usable in this instance.
