A sewing needle is typically made of metal, such as stainless steel or nickel-plated steel, to provide durability and strength for sewing various fabrics. Some specialty needles may have coatings or finishes to help reduce friction and prevent rust.
Early sewing needles were made out of bone, wood, and clay. Needles today are made out of carbonized steel or nickel and have better durability.

The first needles were made of bone or wood; modern ones are manufactured from high carbon steel wire, nickel- or gold plated for corrosion resistance. The highest quality embroidery needles are made of platinum.
