    I watched your video a week ago and ordered the proper needs, pad, finger protectors from Amazon. I already had a cute kit of a tiny pig. Well, today, I've worked 50 minutes on one tiny pig ear, and it's still not right. I've only bled once. haha🐖🐽

    Well done for not giving up! It's hard learning a new skill. Have you watched my video Beginner To Expert Needle Felters ? kzread.info/dash/bejne/i4Wpj9Ohn9iudtI.html It shows expert needle felters beginner projects. Some of them have shown such amazing progress. It definitely shows that we can learn this skill if we are willing to put in the time and effort (and sometimes blood😂) Keep at it! I’m sure you will pick it up in no time!

    great video! love the needle drawings they are a lot better to see the needle detail then trying to show the needles im new to this and have got some kits but have not started as of yet. iv also seen some one using a needle that is forked at the tip for pushing in longer hair like fibers for hair or fur affect.

    I am so happy that this video was helpful to you and thank you for your kind words! My daughter actually laughed at my drawings, but I really couldn't show the needles any other way, so I went with it anyway and now I am glad that I did. 😊 I think it can be intimidating to see all of the beautiful and amazing needle felted creations out there, but all of those people were beginners once too. Start small and aim for improvement, not perfection. It really is easy to begin, fun too, and you'll see improvement and skill develop in no time! There are quite a few different types of needles out there, but I admit that I haven't come across a forked needle... so I'm off in search of a forked needle! 🤣 Thank you so much for taking the time to leave me a comment.💕

    I haven't used one personally, but I know of some needle felters that do use them. I would be concerned if a needle broke while it was working and I couldn't find the end of it. I wanted to say especially if it is a toy but then again, I don't really want to lose the end of a needle in anything.
