Whilst sorting out stuff in the cupboard I found this needle packet which seems to have been around a fair while.

This board is like memory lane, eh Sue? ;D  Seriously, aren't they much nicer than the clear plastic packs needles come in now?

My mother's sewing machine needles came in a cream coloured packet, with red writing on it.

I'm sure I probably have some somewhere!

Just LOVE the name!

Sweden? Thanks Christine, that's good to know. For some reason I'd always thought they were a German firm.  :blush:
