Felting Needles
Needle felting is felting without water, also known as dry felting, using a very sharp needle with tiny barbs to poke and shape unspun wool. Easy to learn and a quick and satisfying way to make all sorts of treasures including dolls and animals for puppetry and play. Children older than 10 can do this with careful adult supervision.
All of our needles are Triangular unless otherwise noted. Pincushion is available separately below.
COARSE is for fast felting that won't show or when needle breakage is an issue. Great for children. Recommended for coarser fibers. 32 Gauge Triangular.
MEDIUM is an all-purpose needle for medium fibers such as our Corriedale and firming stages for coarser fibers, such as Romney, Leicester, Lincoln and Mohair. Use to form or firm 3-dimensional felt in a stabbing or jiggling action. 36 or 38 Gauge Triangular.
FINE is great for detail and finishing any fiber, particularly medium or fine wool, or when you don't want any needling to show. Use to attach and secure wool in a loose way or to secure fibres wrapped around wire or pipe cleaner. 38 Gauge Star Point or 40 Gauge Triangular.
Pumpkin Boy Pincushion
Already made (not a kit), too cute for words and sure to become a keepsake, this densely felted wool pincushion will keep your felting needles handy and rust free. The climbing figure on the side of the pumpkin is clothed in kimono fabric and stuffed with wool.
Ashford 4-Needle Felting Tool
Use four needles at once with this felting punch to save time when felting large, flat areas. Comfortable wood handle warms with use and is designed to prevent your hand from getting tired or achy. Needles are easy to replace, just twist open the handle to remove and insert a new needle. Store extra needles in the hollow barrel of the handle. Best felting tool by far and even includes five Medium 36 Gauge felting needles.

WIZPICK Color Coded Felting Needles
Due to their rising cost the WIZPICKS are being discontinued. What we show below is all we have left.
Brown ~ Thick Fine Triangular (40 gauge)
Pick Brown, a faster fine needle, for quickly adding rough surface textures and embellishments in medium and fine wool projects, but this needle is more inclined to leave a pitted surface than Orange. Not recommended for attaching fine embellishing fibers.
Knob Style Needle Felting Tools
Speed up the process when felting larger areas. Smooth birch knob screws apart to allow quick placement of needles. Small Tool holds up to 6 felting needles and comes with three 36 gauge needles. Large Tool holds up to 12 felting needles and comes with six 36 gauge needles. Please specify.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
All of our needle felting kits come with needles, however a felting pad will need to be purchased separately.

Testimonial
from Maria C-B in Florida....
"We had a very enjoyable tea party afternoon, the highlight of which was "felting" sheep and goats. The girls were just delighted and amused. The 14 to 16 year olds were as happy as the 8 and 10 year olds. And the mothers were delighted just to have something nice we could do together with one another and our daughters. Thank you for the product and for helping to make our afternoon a very special one."
