About this product
The larger cased kit is the better one to keep in a suitcase. This is the one you carry every day, because it fits in a handbag or the pocket of a laptop bag and you stop noticing it.
Two details make a small kit work rather than merely exist. The scissors fold flat, so they take no more room than the case allows rather than dictating its size. And there is a needle threader, which matters more than it sounds – threading a fine needle in a hotel room at night is exactly where people give up and go out with a safety pin instead.
Beyond that it carries needles, a range of thread colours, buttons, pins and clips. Enough for a button, a seam or a hem, which covers nearly everything that goes wrong.
Put it in checked baggage when you fly – small scissors are usually allowed in the cabin but the rule is applied inconsistently and the screener has the last word. And keep the case dry; needles and pins rust fast in coastal air.
