A needle for stereographic embroidery is mainly composed of a main body which is provided with a tapered drilling part, shaped as a cone for drilling through a cloth easily, and a fixing pivot, at its other side, having a thread for screwing together with a embroidering machine. The tapered drilling part, being shaped as a cone, can drill through a hole of the cloth to squeeze outwards the longitudinal and the latitudinal yarns around the hole without damaging to them, achieving the previous drilling action in the stereographic embroidery and keeping the cloth as a whole. Because the drilling action does not damage to any yarns but squeezes them outwards, it provides a more complete basis for embroidering on the yarns to obtain a more vivid and stereographic picture.
