Dritz Hooks & Eyes - 14 Pack (Size 3)

A collection of larger small closures for when you need extra strength and security. Size 3 hooks and eyes are the largest of the common small sizes, often used on heavier garments or places where there's a bit more stress on the closure. This might include coat or jacket necklines, skirt or pants waistbands (especially if the garment is snug), or the top of a dress with a lot of structure. They're also useful in costumes or back closures of formal gowns for added reinforcement along with a zipper. Each set (hook and eye) is made of metal and can come in various finishes (like silver-tone or black). You attach them by hand sewing – typically with sturdy thread – to ensure they stay put under tension. Once attached, the hook catches into the eye and secures the opening. These size 3 hooks and eyes are small enough to remain fairly discreet but big enough to handle more weight and pulling force than the tiny ones. They're great for giving you that extra peace of mind that a closure won't pop open. The pack includes m14 s, which means you'll have enough for a few projects or backups. As with all Dritz notions, they're made for reliability – they won't easily bend or break with normal use, so your garments stay fastened as intended.
