Do you absolutely "need" a very small pair of embroidery scissors to use in your embroidery and/or cross stitch work? Probably not. Do you WANT a small pair of scissors? You're here, so probably yes!
 
These small embroidery scissors measure just under 2" tall, making them the perfect size for travel purposes (please see photos of the scissors with my hands in the shot and the photo of them next to a ruler for size reference) and feature tiny square handles in a bright pink color.
 
Embroidery scissors are great for all sorts of crafts - I've had customers purchase these for their work in crochet, knitting, quilting, cross stitch, other fabric crafts, and, of course, embroidery! In embroidery, I use scissors like these to snip off the tails of embroidery floss. Regular scissors will also do the job, but having a pair of embroidery scissors like these can make it just a bit easier (and more fun!).
