Want to try out punch needle but don't know where to start? This adjustable punch needle tool is great for beginners, allowing you to create lots of texture with just one needle. The punch needle has seven different settings, each one creates a different loop height. This is the needle if you want to create projects using chunky / thick yarn.
The punch needle uses bulky (5) weight (such as thick, chunky) and some super bulky (6) yarn (like super chunky) as shown in the photos. For making durable projects I would recommend using with 100% rug yarn. For a foundation fabric, the needle works perfectly with linen fabric and monks cloth. The fabric needs to be a loose weave to allow the punch needle to move through it, a tighter weave will be difficult to punch and could result in holes in the fabric.
If you have any medium (4) weight yarn (such as aran / worsted) left over from knitting or crochet projects you can double or triple this up and use in the punch needle. Punch needle is the perfect craft for using up leftover scraps of yarn.
