Frequently Asked Questions
Learn everything you need to know about needle felting – from learning difficulty to the materials you’ll need to get started.
Is needle felting difficult to learn?
Felting is a craft that anyone can learn to do, no matter their age. All that it entails is for the crafter to poke wool or acrylic fiber with a needle repeatedly to create shapes, animals, or any other creation you can imagine! Kits from Hamanaka make it easy to have fun felting. You can relax at home or on the go with your hobby.
Can I use any needle-to-needle felt?
Needle felting requires a felting needle – not a regular sewing needle. Felting needles are specifically designed to bind and lock fibers together so you can create different objects. Felt kits make the process easy by providing you with everything you need to get started, including the felting needle.
How long does it take to needle felt something?
The length of time it takes to needle felt depends on the Japanese needle felting kit you choose and your skill level. The shape, size, and details will all impact how long it takes. Many find the process of needle felting to be relaxing.
Is needle felting permanent?
Any of the felt kits from Hamanaka that you complete will provide you with permanent results. This is because when you needle felt, you’re locking the fibers together with the needle. You can be guaranteed that after completion, your animal or other creation will remain intact.
