A needle can be classified as a class 1 lever. In a class 1 lever, the fulcrum is located between the effort (force applied) and the load (resistance). When a needle is used to sew, the pivot point acts as the fulcrum, the hand pressing down on the needle serves as the effort, and the fabric being pierced is the load.

What class lever is a pencil?

A pencil isn't a lever at all, unless you are using it to turn force into useful motion. If you use the pencil to write with, it's closer to being a needle reading a record, as it is dragged across a surface, leaving graphite which has broken off of the main core on the paper. For a first class lever, think of a see-saw. For a second class lever, think of a wheelbarrow. For a third class, think of a pair of nail clippers, or of your forearm.
