What you're describing sounds like a "tapestry needle" or a "darning needle." These needles have a flat end, which allows for easier threading of thicker yarns or fabrics. Unlike standard sewing needles, which have a pointed end, the flat end is designed for specific tasks like weaving or mending.

Something that is a circular knit is knotted on a circular needle and has no seems. Something that is a flat knit is knotted on separate needles and the pieces of the garment have to be sewn together at the end.
When one end of the unmagnetized needle is in contact with a magnet, the magnetic field from the magnet induces magnetism in the needle. This results in the end of the needle touching the magnet becoming a magnetic pole, and the other end becoming an opposite pole. The opposite poles attract each other, causing the unmagnetized needle to attract another needle when in contact with a magnet.
Angiosperms typically have broad, flat leaves, but some species do possess needle-like or scale-like leaves. Examples of angiosperms with needle-like leaves include certain conifers, such as pines, which are technically gymnosperms. However, some angiosperms like the genus Juniperus (junipers) can have scale-like leaves. Overall, while most angiosperms do not have needle or scale-like leaves, there are exceptions in specific genera.
A needle is a small, thin object that has a sharp and pointed end. On the other hand, latch needle is the part of a knitting machine having a thin shaft with a hook on one end.

Needle-like crystals are long, thin crystals with a shape similar to that of a needle. They typically have a pointed end and may be found in various substances such as minerals, salts, or chemical compounds. These crystals can vary in size and color, depending on the specific substance they are composed of.
A round object with flat, circular ends is a cylinder. It is shaped like a can of vegetables.
Needle protectors are usually bright coloured (orange, green or pink). Made of plastic - they look like a small cylinder - closed at one end, designed to protect the needle-tip from damage (and stop it being accidentally stuck into a person !).

A compass should be held flat to ensure that the magnetic needle can move freely and accurately point towards magnetic north. Holding it flat also helps prevent the needle from sticking or getting caught on surfaces, which could result in inaccurate readings.
The northern end of the British compass needle will be weighted because it is attracted to the magnetic North Pole.
