Punch Needle Starter Kit

We have put a lot of love into curating these kits for our members. The punch needle tools here are great quality. Plus, everything has been tried and tested by me, so we know you will have the best journey learning punch needle as possible.

This kit includes the basic equipment you'll use over and over again, each time you make a punch needle project.

Please choose which one of our wonderful beginner needles you’d like to include in your kit – the Oxford #10 Reg (my fav!) or the Lavor Chunky Adjustable Punch Needle.

You can also choose which non-slip hoop to include in your kit - a basic option, or the top notch Morgan No Slip Hoop (it’s amazing!).

Note: You will also need to buy the 'Project Kit' for each pattern (which will cover the yarn, fabric and display hoop or frame for that particular pattern).

This kit includes:

Your choice out of two different punch needle tools:

•  Oxford #10 Regular Punch Needle

This is the holy grail of punch needles my friend! It’s a fantastic option if you are a punch needle newbie. It fits so nicely in your hand, and the design means you can easily thread it without needing to use a threader tool. It also comes with a lifetime guarantee

 OR

•  Lavor Chunky Adjustable Punch Needle

This is a fantastic beginner punch needle to get you started on your punch needle journey! Made in Portugal, with metal and 100% recycled plastic. This needle comes with a simple threader tool, which you will use to thread the punch needle with your yarn.

Your choice out of two types of plastic non-slip hoops:

• Deluxe Morgan No Slip Hoop (10")

I absolutely love the Morgan No Slip hoop – it’s a dream to punch your designs with!  These hoops have a unique patented tongue and groove configuration, which holds the fabric securely between the inner and outer rings, thus keeping the fabric in place while working on the project. As such – there is no movement of the project until the outer ring is loosened and the project is removed from the inner ring – keeps your project taut while you are working on it! This size will suit the majority of your punch needle projects.

OR

• Basic Plastic No Slip Hoop (10")

This hoop is a great beginner option for holding your foundation fabric nice and taut while you punch your patterns, and this size will suit the majority of your punch needle projects.

Plus these awesome tools:

• Clever Poppy Scissors in Sea Green

The Clever Poppy scissors are lovely to use and you can snip in nice and close to your yarn and stitches.

• Pilot Frixion Pen (Heat Erasable)
  

A pen with a fine tip that will disappear with heat!  This style with the blue chiselled tip works really well on monks cloth - you can use the tip to easily mark the cloth with a very visible fine line. 

HOW TO REMOVE THE FRIXION PEN? All you need to do is blow a hair dryer over your finished pattern, and the pen will disappear! You can also use an iron, just go gently in terms of the heat and pressure (press gently down, don't rub it back and forth across your stitches). I'm sure you'll love these pens! 

• DMC #13 weaving needle

This simple yarn needle is perfect if you want to add whip stitch finishes to your designs.  The large eye ensures you will be able to thread the chunky yarns that we use.

Additional Notes:  We strive to use sustainable packaging where possible.  All the packaging used in this kit is compostable including the clear eco-bags sourced from econic packaging.
