This is further discounted as the wood of the needle has a slightly different colour in the grain. It works perfectly, and I think it looks cute that it's different.
The Oxford Punch Needle is designed by punch needle expert Amy Oxford and hand made in the USA.
It is ergonomically designed for comfort and speed and features a hand turned maple wood handle and electro polished stainless steel needle.
It can be used with yarn, cut strips of wool and other fabrics.
This listing is for the #10 Regular Needle - it comes with the collector’s box and handbook
#10 Regular (1/4 inch loop height) uses chunkier weight yarn. I recommend 14 or 16 ply (bulky or super bulky) yarn. You can also use rug yarn which is a bulky yarn.
