Felting Needles - in tube (various types)

Felting Needles - all packed in a safe screw-top shatterproof tube:

We stock a mix of needles including Groz Beckert high quality felting needles (see below). They are marked with a colour on the top. Below is a guide to the needles we sell, and the colours we use:

Standard: Good quality felting needles available in triangle shaped cross section. Marked with a colour on the end. 

#36 coarse - White (x6)
#38 medium - Orange (x6)
#40 fine - Green (x6)
Standard Mix Tube:  (#36 coarse x 2, #38 medium x 2, #40 fine x 2)

Twisted (Spiral) (Groz Beckert): The needles are triangular in cross section but twisted, a little like a drill bit in looks. We love twisted needles as we have found they work faster and leave less visible holes. Marked with a colour on the end.

#36 coarse - Black (x3)
#38 medium - Purple (x3)
#40 fine - Red (x3)
#42 very fine - Baby Pink (x3)
Twisted Mix Tube:   (#36 coarse x 1, #38 medium x 1, #40 fine x 1)

Twisted (Spiral) Star: The best of both worlds of the twisted needles and the star needle combined. We love these needles! They were a favourite gift in our 2018 advent calendar.

#38 medium - Dark Blue (x3)

Cross-Star (Groz Beckert): The Cross-Star needles have 4 sides which means they catch fibres from 4 different places rather than 3 as the triangle needles do, making them a much harder worker.

#38 medium - Yellow (x3)

Reverse (Groz Beckert): The needles have notches / barbs on them which face the opposite direction to normal needles, and therefore pull the fibres outwards rather than stabbing them inwards. This creates a lovely fluffy effect which is great for needle felt animals. See our free tips on using the Reverse Needle here.

#32 coarse - Teal (x5)
#40 fine - Coral (x3)
Reverse Mix Tube:  (#32 coarse x 2, #40 fine x 2)

Our basic needles (usually in our kits) are not marked but can be differentiated by their variation in length (which makes them much easier to distinguish if you are a beginner!):

Basic #40 fine - shortest (standard length, same as all of the above needles)
Basic #38 medium - slightly longer
Basic #36 coarse - longest!
