Product Description
Clover Protect and Grip Thimble – Large
The Clover Protect and Grip Thimble – Large is an ergonomic hand-sewing tool that offers a lightweight, breathable alternative to traditional metal thimbles. Combining a soft, flexible yellow rubber base with a sturdy silver metal cap, this thimble is thoughtfully designed for comfort, control, and long-lasting performance—ideal for a wide range of hand-stitching tasks.
With a diameter of approximately 17 mm, the large size is suited to those with larger fingers or those who prefer a more relaxed fit. The flexible rubber conforms to the finger without applying pressure, while the uniquely corrugated shape enhances airflow, preventing discomfort from sweating during extended use. This design ensures a snug and secure feel without the tightness of standard metal thimbles.
The ridged metal tip allows for firm needle control, enabling the user to push the needle through multiple layers or dense fabrics with confidence. Whether you're hand-quilting, piecing together patchwork, or performing delicate embroidery, the textured cap helps reduce slippage and ensures precision with every stitch. The protective top also reduces fingertip fatigue by absorbing the repeated pressure of stitching.
Weighing 50 to 80% less than conventional metal thimbles, this lightweight alternative helps minimise hand strain while still delivering full protection. It’s particularly useful when working with heavier materials such as wadding, interfacing, or tightly woven canvas. The thimble’s soft construction and breathable surface make it a suitable choice for users with arthritis or sensitivity to rigid tools.
Trusted by makers worldwide, Clover has built a reputation for quality sewing tools—and this thimble is no exception. It offers a dependable and refined solution for those who value practicality, comfort, and craftsmanship.
Whether you're finishing a quilt binding, stitching appliqué details, or tackling hand-mending projects, the Clover Protect and Grip Thimble (Large) allows you to work with ease and efficiency, stitch after stitch.
