Punchneedle

Punchneedle is a small scale version of rug hooking and very addicting!  Learning time 15 minutes. It's that easy!  It does take a few tries to perfect your technique, but it's a fun process.

Supplies List

• Pattern  (So much fun to pick out!)
• Hoop to fit around your pattern  (Either a hoop with a ridge on the inside or a rug hooking frame will work)
• Punchneedle  (I use Ultra-Punch) http://www.amazon.com/Ultra-Punch-Needle-Embroidery-Threader/dp/B00266UH4U/ref=sr_1_21?ie=UTF8&qid=1330051329&sr=8-21
• Floss  (DMC and Gentle Arts are the brands I use)
• Weavers Cloth  (unless your pattern includes it)

Here are a few books I recommend...
