As always, thank you for making these videos. I’d be so lost without you!
I watched the live show and then the rerun. Learned something new each time. Thank you for packing your tutorials full of useful information!!
NATASHA SMART! Exciting! This will be a great one to watch if you have not tried her technique.
Great information. Really clarifies the needles and their uses and what to use when . Thank you.
I really appreciate that you always include us beginners in your wooly Wednesdays and tutorials! I'm sure it helps lots more folks feel inspired to create!
I loved seeing the replay and learning about the needesizes
Omg ordered the needle holders. This was amazing. Have to rewatch so saving it. Thank u so much marie and faries
Great information. I know I will not remember it all though. Nice to have a video I can always go back to for reference!
This was a great brush up on needles. I use the same three most of the time and forget what other needles will do
Great helpful information! Concise and easy to understand. Thank you Marie!
Thanks for sharing all this info! It's great to see the examples to go with the needles and felting.
i love the explanations i wish i had known that so many existed ty so much
Thank you for this video on felting needles. I wanted to order some to get started, so I'm grateful to have this information before I did. I'll probably end up ordering your whole kit.
Wow! I learned so much today about felting needles. Thank you so much ladies.
Hi from Kathleen on Whidbey Island! Sorry I had to miss the live show today. Fascinating subject. Thank you!
Great explanations and descriptions of the different needles. I like that you offer variety packs on your website.
Thank you SO MUCH for explaining the spiral/triangle, etc.
Thanks for the needle education! I'm still very new to this! That Oprah piece is gorgeous!
Yes, I did acquire some needles that I need to identify. Love the tube organizers for the needles - need to order. Lots of help as usual. Thanks.
Just ordered the triangle spiral needle and thanks for explaining the needle sizes and shapes. I just used one that felt right for me.
Thank you for making felting so much easier with all the information provided !
So very interesting and I learned so much. Many thanks Marie.
Such useful information, thank you. I never know what shape I’m using, I just know if it ‘feels’ right. I could so easily be missing a trick! I was unable to join you this week following surgery, but looking forward to next Wednesdays gem.
Thank you as always very helpful. Having bought your bundle of needles its nice to again hear what they do best.
Was just about to purchase the wrong felt for what I needed before I found this video 😅 so thanks! This was very helpful ☺️
Very informative show. Thank you for explaining and demonstrating !
I keep my LF needles in their package with the card so I know for sure which ones & keeping my LF needles separate from the misc. ones I got early on or with kits I have been gifted. My favorite is a Spiral! I will be ordering the Star Spiral just to try. I do have only 3 needles I use every day. I will also like having the tubes when I order more for sure! I love my reverse needles so much! They are excellent for adding just a touch around noses & bare spots. I have made two animals using only extra firmed core wool & my reverse needle. It's a totally different texture but I really liked them. I did not like having to un-poke my finger though! lol I'll just say this, I would not buy my needles from anyone else but LF, they are all excellent!
Thank you for sharing, Rian!
Hello from colorado…missed this yesterday! Always a good refresher course
I have recently began using your pre-felt. The timing of this video is perfect. Gave me additional information to assist with future orders. Thank you for all your information!
This Wooly Wednesday was so helpful. I am new to felting, and the explanation of the different needles and how to use them was so helpful. This video cleared up all my confusion of felting needles. Understanding the difference of felt vs prefelt was all new information for me. Thanks so much! Also, I just love the needle storage tubes. It seems like a much safer way to store and organize them. And who doesn't love being organized! Thanks again for a great show.
Hi. Sorry missed the live show. I am very excited and busy. I booked two Laura classes and the Pitbull one as well. Thankful for your supplies and classes. Krista
This was so beneficial. I’m new, love wet felting but a bit intimidated with needle felting.
I have only worked with triangle needles- after Watching your
Workshop, I am so curious to try stars and spirals.
What an informative show..thank you!
Now I must find a way to put "My gnome is flying." into every conversation I'm having
😂❤️
Fantastic information ❤thanks 😊
Thank you so much!
Live this video!
Wow so much wonderful information I love it!
Very informative as usual
Love this Wooly Wednesday episode! Refresher on tools and products are always a wonderfully helpful subject! Thanks so much, Marie!
I miss being able to be at the live events but grateful I have a job even though it prevents me from attending the lives! So grateful for being able to watch the replays!
Thank you for this wonderful Wolly Wednesday! I learned new things about the needles, learned more about pre-felt and felt and am excited to continue to learn and add all that I have learned to my wall hangings and 3d art!

Greetings from Lithuania - I was so excited to watch this and learn more about needles. How many will I need of which# - how many will I go through in a period of time so I am not caught without any on hand during a project.
I love the furby. U should have a kit. Is there a video for it
I have one of your orange needles. It doesn’t seem to felt the wool. It just bounces off it
Can you go over what the microns mean, again?
I never realized that my last name was not showing. Can't win a prize that way. 😄
Hi from Asheville NC !
What is the best needle for a smooth finish?
42T 😋
