Quick Guide to Felting Needles:
The higher the
gauge
number, the
finer
is the needle and the smaller are the barbs.
The greater the number of barbs the quicker the needle will felt, will less accuracy.
The fewer the barbs a needle has, the greater the accuracy of the needle and the slower the process.
Most common gauges (from coarse to fine): 32G, 36G, 38G, 40G, 42G, 46G
Felting Needle Types:
-
Triangular
(triangle in cross section) - regular, garden variety type
-
Star
(diamond star in cross section) - more sides, more barbes, faster and more efficient felting
-
Inverted
(
reversed
) - the barbs pull the wool instead of pushing, creating a fluffy fur look.
-
Spiral
(triangular or star) - the barbs twist wool around the end, making felting quicker with a neater finish with less surface holes.
-
Crown
- the barbs are only at the point, for the finest detail work.
-
Fork
- does not have barbs, instead it has a fork at the end and the hairs are caught in the middle of the fork then pushed into the doll's head, for example.
