DIY Punch Needle Embroidery Class

Punch needle embroidery, also known as needle punching or punch needle rug hooking, is a form of needlework reminiscent of rug hooking. It entails employing a hollow needle tool to "punch" loops of wool yarn through holes in a woven foundation cloth, thereby crafting a design. The resulting series of loops, known as the pile, bestows a rug-like texture upon the design.

This technique boasts a rich historical lineage, with roots extending back hundreds, if not thousands, of years. Initially employed for adorning medieval garments and panels with exquisite punch needle embroidery, the method later evolved to incorporate thicker yarns for rug making. Presently, Punch needles have emerged as a trendy craft, finding their place in various domains from home furnishings to clothing. It utilizes a needle punch tool to generate loops of yarn, culminating in a beautifully textured finish.
