Description

This kit includes beginner's instructions; 4 needles in sizes 36, 38, 40 triangle and 38 star point; a felting board along with one ounce of fiber to start your felting experience.

Felting needles are the hand tools necessary to do needle felting. Each needle has notched barbs on the sides toward the bottom of the shaft. Needle felting is a process which uses barbed needles to interlock wool fibers to form a more condensed material. Wool fibers have scales which when rubbed against each other catch and lock into place to create this denser material called felt. Felting needles are used to entangle the fibers. As the felting needle is moved up and down, the barbs on the needles catch the scales of the wool and entangle them into place.

We have needles in three sizes: 36, 38, 40 triangel and also 38 star point needle. The 36 triangle needle is excellent for fast course felting. The 38 triangel is a good all purpose needle. The 40 triangle needle is used for fine details such as sculpting. The 38 star point needle is a very fast coarse felting needle. The more coarse the needle the larger the hole that is left in the surface. The holes can be smoothed over by using a finer needle all over the surface.
