Punch Needle Beginner Tutorial. fine vs. regular & How to Get Started! 

Whaaaaat!! that is amazing! And I feel great! Thanks xxx

My News Years resolution is to get more yarns permanently in stock on my site. I just need to buckle down and devote a few days to it!

I'm glad you're there! We're only just beginning!××

I bet you're getting a lot better! More and more beauty and confidence.... it's got to be fun!××

Haha! I love those marathon days! Yes it goes insanely fast. Key is not to obsess. So much fun and such a good result when you're just flying through xx

I've been uusing self-adhesive (sticks to itself) medical taps - it's like gauze that only sticks to itself - to wrap around hoops too. Amazon sells packs in many colors to keep it lively!

Thanks, Debra! xx

@@RibbonCandyHooking after playing around on my phone, I figured out how to say something to you!😁

@@debramock692 haha!! It's so hard figuring that stuff out! My 6 year shows me. When she's not standing next to me I can't even log in

Hey Sam! Write me at ribboncandyhooking@gmail.com any time... easy to send you links from there. This is the hook I use most often, and sell... www.ribboncandyhooking.com/products/primitive-rug-hook And this is the frame I'd go for... www.etsy.com/listing/577289726/11-x-14-rug-hooking-top-only I feel like you'd probably use both these tools forever. No need to buy hugely expensive stuff!

That would be wonderful! I hear people talk about using strips, but I have never seen it before.

Where Do we get the wool strips from

No, not at all. The loops will never ever come out!

I dont sell them yet - I get mine from the Velvet Hook.com

You have the kind of needle that the tip comes off and that part is missing?

Good thing it's free, right.

@@RibbonCandyHooking that was a bit whitty I wanted to learn how to doit as I've never done it before

@@RibbonCandyHooking at the end of the day it was a for beginners yeah?

This is definitely something you can get into with chronic pain (SUPER BUMMER) but you have the right attitude and it sounds like you mean to make lemonade out of lemons - if your hands bother you at all the pear shaped - or doorknob shaped hook can be really good. Make sure you write with questions! ribboncandyhooking@gmail.com If you're on facebook, join the group - there are a LOT of people in the UK! xx

No it won't ever crush it. The loops will always always bounce back. Seems impossible but its always fine!××

Where to purchase peacock needle please

That is so true instead of dragging the needle you should be punching in the direction away from you.

How is it going for you Shavon?

Ok great... I'll look into that!

Yes, that's a great idea. I will make a video this week showing how to fix mistakes while you're both punching or hooking. I'm very glad that you are about to break out your projects. We all make mistakes- constantly. You'll see that it's impossible to ruin a piece, and I'm reluctant to even say 'mistake' because sometimes we rip out parts because we change our minds. You'll have the confidence very soon to approach every new piece knowing for certain that you can change your mind and adjust it as you go along. You can make mistakes too-- and it'll all come out great in the end xx

Yes you can!

That makes me feel so HAPPY! xxxx if your punch is a 'regular' you can use any weight up to bulky. But if it's a 'fine' then only sock yarn to worsted will run through it. The #8 refers to the height of the shaft but all the needles are either 'regular' (large) and 'fine' (small). I hope that helps! xx

@@RibbonCandyHooking ooh okay perfect, that makes things a little easier to figure out lol 😂 thank you so much darlin I appreciate the info!

Absolutely! That's a perfect comparison and the quote of the day!!!

Yes!!! Please keep asking questions! It's an easy craft, and with you being an advanced Crocheter, you're going to bring so much talent and creativity to this craft. I can't wait to see what you do!×××

Hugs and hugs right back to you!××

Thank you xx

I have it in my shop. It's very very light so the shipping shouldn't be too crazy

I found some here but it was over 50 bucks can you imagine

But will order from you next time didn’t know you sold it.
