Punch Needle Publications

The punch needle publications category carries the Turkish Modern Punch Embroidery book and the English Modern Punch Needle book. Both explain choosing and setting the punch needle, stretching fabric, flat and loop textures, colour transitions, gluing the back and finishing in photos, with home projects such as panels, cushions, bags and rugs. All books are in Magazines and Books.

Which Edition?

The Turkish edition explains terms and material names for local readers starting from scratch. The English edition holds current projects by international designers; being largely visual it can be followed without the language, and the two complement each other. For new designs, Punch Needle Patterns offers full-size digital templates.

Starting the book projects

The projects need an adjustable punch needle, monk's cloth or punch cloth, wool or acrylic punch yarn and a locking punch frame, all in Punch Needle; the ready sets in Punch Needle Kits put the book's techniques into practice for a first project.
