The Secret of Felting Needles
Almost every beginner will ask the same question-- how the wool get tightened buy such a needle?How? I was one of them to ask this question. I guessed the needle must be so special.
Of course, a ordinary needle cannot make it, because it is too smooth to hold the wool and make it tighter. Hence, when I found the barbs on the blade, I felt like I got everything I want! Well, the direction of those barbs on the picture are toward the point. If you see that, you will easily understand why it drags wool into each other when you stab it in the penguin "body" and why it doesn't drag wool when taken out from the "body".
With this magic tool, we can make everything we want! The only difference is the times that you jabbing it. Normally, thousands of times are needed to uniform and even the surface of the wool since keep the consistence it so important for this art.
