The Danella Tufting Tool works like a dream and gives wings to your creativity. It is easy to use and offers a lovely balance between speed, comfort, and hand-made satisfaction.
The Danella needle can produce up to 200 loops a minute, and can move backwards, forwards, any direction you like - making it easy to create your designs freely. Loops can be set to three different heights - 6mm, 8mm, 11mm, making it possible to create stunning three-dimensional effects.
This rug hooking tool works around ten times faster than using a traditional punch needle. Compared to the rapid, heavy electric tufting gun however, our needle still relies on your handcraft, not electricity, meaning you can tuft anywhere, at your own speed, with much greater control and less need for a large space to work in.
Well looked after, the Danella needle will last you a lifetime. We are proud of the quality of our products. That's why we offer Free Repairs for Life.
The tool comes with an instruction guide, and there are videos available online for further guidance.
After the Second World War, when finished articles were hard to come by, the Danella Needle became very popular as a tool for making large ornate rugs, which would be the centrepiece of the house.
More recently, a new generation of makers have discovered the fantastic Danelle Needle is ideal for tufting smaller rugs, wall hangings, seat covers, cushions, and many other wonderful things, where seemingly the only limits are those set by your imagination.
This new 'pop art' style of tufting can be seen on Instagram, check out #danella and #danellanål or #danellaneedle for inspiration and to get an idea of what people are creating with the Danella needle these days.
Danella is a small family business from Denmark that has been providing equipment to rug makers for over 70 years. We will be more than happy to keep in touch with you, and provide you with as much help as you need to begin on your tufting journey.
