What Tools and Materials Do I Need to Start Needle Felting?
What Tools and Materials Do I Need to Start Needle Felting?
You might ask yourself, "what Tools and Materials Do I Need to Start Needle Felting?"
You are right to ask this question! There are so many felting tools out there. To start, don't worry about having everything out there, just focus on the basics: needles, wool and a felting surface.
Firstly, What is Felting?
Needle felting involves using a sharp barbed needle to sculpt and shape wool roving. You can poke and shape the wool into 3D shapes like animals, landscapes, food, or even masks or clothing. Many people we’ve taught to felt at workshops at schools, libraries and even. Everyone comments on how easy and stress relieving felting is! A little stabbing can really get the stress out; hence why teachers seem to love felting so much!

Why Wool is the Best Making Material
Let Us Explain Why Wool is the Best Making Material
Wool is earth friendly, familiar and affordable. You can try out a variety of techniques with wool including needle felting, wet felting, spinning, knitting, crocheting or weaving. Magic Trout Imaginarium buys our wool from New Zealand, where sheep are bred for their wool, rather than for their meat or dairy products. This means they are treated like gold!
