The term 'sewing tool' can refer to two items: an AWL and a NEEDLE. An AWL is a pointed tool used for piercing holes in leather or other materials. It is usually made of metal and has a handle for easy gripping. A NEEDLE is a slender, pointed piece of metal with a hole at one end, used for stitching fabric and other materials. It is often made of steel and comes in various sizes and shapes. Both the AWL and the NEEDLE are essential tools for sewing.
