Announcement
Welcome to blackdogandgingercat the home of beautiful British needle felting wool and handmade needle felting kits. From needle felting beginners to experts we have something for all.
You'll be amazed at how simple the craft of needlefelt is - it’s just so easy, relaxing and intuitive. Making is part of who we are as human beings and crafting something 3D and solid from wisps of wool is a very positive, comforting and communal thing to do. And this is why we love it and want you to love it too.
Here at blackdogandgingercat, we design needlefelt kits for absolute complete beginners through to those looking for lots of challenge.
The kits for complete beginners fall into two categories:
Stage 1 - SUPER SIMPLE - for nervous beginners.
Stage 2 - BEGINNERS - perfect for anyone. These are for really learning how needlefelting works and how you can work the wool so that it becomes a wonderful, sculptural medium.
Then, as you begin to learn and want to try something a bit more complicated, we have designed:
Stage 3 - CHALLENGING – there are designed to improve your needlefelting skills, encouraging you to focus on sculptural form and more complex colour layering. They are for people who have had a bit of experience and now want to push themselves further. You could try these as a beginner but you might find them a bit frustrating and I would hate for that to happen.
Then finally, at the top of our LADDER OF LEARNING, we have:
Stage 4 - 'OH SO VERY CHALLENGING'. These are really NOT for beginners. They are for people who understand well how needlefelting works and how the wool responds.
Enjoy needle felting xx

5 out of 5 starsI can't wait to get stuck into this kit. Everything I needed in there, even to a threaded needle for the eyes! Lots of gorgeous wool too! The seller was kind enough to add some lighter colours as my Border Daisy is a little on the blonde side. Came really quickly. What else can I say? :)

Sharing the needle felt love through excellent needle felting kits
Designed for absolute complete ‘beginners’ to those who are looking for something with a bit more technical detail – we’ve called these ‘challenging’. And then we also offer the ‘Oh, so very challenging’ – these are for people who have had a bit of experience and now want to push themselves further.
