Technorati tags: Needle
Punch
The basic concept of punch needle or needlepunch is pretty simple, yarn is punched through a tightly woven fabric from the back with a hollow pencil shaped needle and leaves tufted loops of yarn on top of the fabric. The tufts can be left as is or trimmed to add a velvety look. It is very easy to create your own patterns from pictures, coloring book pages or purchased iron on transfers. I have even used stained glass patterns!!

Hey, those are really cool!
These are wonderful. Must take incredible amounts of patience to do. Really really nice.
Wow, those are great. I've always though punch needle was done with much bigger needles & yarn. You have me intrigued. I may just have to try this hobby myself.
