How is the felting needle used?
Felting needles are made of steel and have barbed blades. The barbs catch the fibers and tangle them together as the needles pierce in an out of the wool or fibers. The more times the needles pierce the fiber, the more dense the fiber becomes. Felting needles are used in industrial felting machines that hold thousands of needles to make flat sheets of felt used for many purposes - the felt liner in the trunk of your car was made on an industrial felting machine. Felting needles are also used for fiber arts. Single felting needles are used to sculpt three dimensional figures and also flat needle felted tapestries.

Where do you buy felting wool the type that you can use for needle felting?
Nearly any type of wool can be needle felted but certain types work better than others. Wool in batting form (sheets of wool that resembles quilt batting) works the best for sculptural needle felting but it can be harder to find than wool for traditional felting or spinning - also known as roving or combed tops.I use Norwegian C1 Felting Batts for my Felt Alive Wool Sculptures. It felts very fast with a felting needle, it doesn't contain much vegetable matter and it doesn't show the holes from the felting needles. I love it because it is strong which allows my dolls to be very strong and flexible without the use of wire armatures.I find Norwegian C1 Felting Batts online from New England Felting Supply and in smaller quantities at Dream Felt.
