Clover's needle felting tool includes: a built-in handle to keep your fingers safe from the sharp needles; a claw end to keep the small pieces in place or for blending colors; and a mat clearer end to help you brush stray fibers away from your felting mat. Decorating items with applique is easy, all it takes is a light punch. Needle felting can also be used for mending knitwear, felting strands of yarn back together, or felting patching over holes.
