The safety pin, redesigned for makers who care about their materials.
Standard safety pins have a coil at the hinge, which can be the culprit behind snagged yarn, split fibres, and caught threads. SOHMO Coilless Pins (also known as coil-free pins or French safety pins) are made without it. The result is a smooth, clean pin that glides into position without catching on anything it shouldn't.
Made from nickel-plated steel, these pins are a go-to for knitters and crocheters using them as stitch markers - lightweight enough to sit comfortably on the needle, strong enough to hold their position through a whole project. They're equally at home securing appliqué pieces before stitching, holding delicate or loosely woven fabrics in place, or tacking fine silks and sheers where a standard pin might leave marks.
Beyond fibre crafts, they're handy for attaching swing tags and labels, pinning embroidery transfers, and any task where a snag-free result matters more than brute holding power.
Packaged in a compact sliding-lid metal tin - easy to tuck into a project bag, keep on the workbench, or stash in a sewing kit.
