curved needle
Stitching arc tool
A curved needle is a needle with a bent shaft, used primarily in surgery and upholstery where a straight needle can't reach or maneuver effectively.
Surgical curved needles allow doctors to suture tissue by rotating the wrist rather than pushing through: The surgeon selected a curved needle for the deep abdominal closure.
In leatherwork and furniture repair, curved needles pass through material from awkward angles.
