<p>I would recommend you to use Caneva hand sewing needles with dull tip. Also, a ribbon of about 0.7 mm is easy to handle. Take a look at ideas on Pinterest (<a href="https://www.pinterest.co.uk/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.pinterest.co.uk/</a>), usually, they have DIY ideas and tutorials</p>

What is a Caneva needle? If it's a brand, please could you edit your answer to explain a little about the properties of these needles, and why they're good for ribbon embroidery?
