they are compatible with the needle size.
TIP
Yarn and thread colors sometimes change, are discontinued, or aren’t sold in certain regions or stores. If you can’t find the exact product or color suggested for a project, don’t sweat it—just pick a slightly different color or similar product!
Needles
Punch needles come in many sizes. The three used in this book are shown and described here. Punch needle sizes are not very standardized; some manufacturers use a number system and some do not, and some kits only include one single needle size. Try to look at the punch needle you are thinking about buying in the store, and, if you’re unsure, ask the manufacturer for the exact size of the needle.
1. The first is a large size. It allows you to work with the thickest yarns that are knitted with knitting needles from US sizes 6 to 8.
2. The second is a medium size. It allows you to work with less thick yarn that is knitted with knitting needles from US sizes 4 to 5.
3. The third is a fine size. It allows you to work with finer yarns and embroidery floss.
Loops
Punch needles can make loops of different sizes. Many punch needles are adjustable so you can choose the size of the loop you want to make. If you’re just starting out, it’s a good idea to test different yarns and loop lengths before embarking on a project. You want to know how it will turn out before you start!
