Punch Needle Tip:

How to keep the details in your punch needle design crisp and clear - Rose Clay at ThreeSheepStudio.com

When you are punching a design and
turn over your hoop or frame,
this is what you might see...
lines and edges that have "blurred".



How to keep the details in your punch needle design crisp and clear - Rose Clay at ThreeSheepStudio.com

As you punch the various areas,
use your needle tip to nudge any stray loops
into place on the front.
This will keep the details in your design,
crisp and clear.
