Punch Needle Kits

Punch needle is the new relief embroidery technique that is becoming increasingly popular with craft enthusiasts. As well as being an addictive and fun activity, you can easily create beautiful artworks on canvas. Here we explain the basic principles of this method and the tools you will need.

What is punch needle embroidery?

Punch needle is a unique embroidery method that involves stitching the fabric with a hollow punch needle, also known as a "magic needle", so that when you remove the needle it leaves a loop of wool thread on the other side. By repeating this movement, you can create patterns, images or inscriptions on the fabric. You can make long loops (for a fluffy look) or smooth, flat stitches (perfect for small figures or fine details) and achieve a variety of unexpected and fun results by combining different types of wool yarns (colours, materials, thickness). In other words, you can use punching to make countless creative experiences.
