What is a "thimble"?

A thimble is a small, protective tool worn on the fingertip while sewing. It is typically made of metal, plastic, or silicone and is designed to shield the finger from being pricked by the needle. The thimble often has a textured surface to help push the needle through the fabric more easily. It helps to improve precision and comfort during sewing, especially when working with thick or tough materials.
