I’ve been using the same one for a few weeks now and just noticed it was turning black. I tried to clean it but that did nothing. Is this something that happens with cheap needles? Is there a particular brand I should get?

It definitely smoothed out the needle a little more but it’s still black lol
I think it’s probably fine though. I have like 8 more cross stitch needles I haven’t used at all yet and this one seems to be working fine
Then that color is probably there to stay, lol, but I’m glad it helped with the surface texture. And yeah, I have never had that level of discoloration, but it sounds like other people have, and it’s not an issue. A needle that’s working is always a good needle, IMO, even if it doesn’t look very good.
