Let’s be honest: most of us didn’t get into needle felting because we had extra time lying around.
We got into it because one day we saw a wool critter on the internet and thought,
“I could probably make that,”
and the next thing we knew, we were emotionally attached to a fluff ball with no eyes.
Still—if you want reasons to needle felt, here are ten very solid ones.
1. Because Wool Follows You Everywhere Anyway
2. Because It’s Cheaper Than Therapy
3. Because You Can Stab Something Repeatedly and Call It Art
4. Because Watching a Blob Turn Into a Creature Is Pure Magic
5. Because Your Friends Will Say, “You MADE That?”
6. Because It Makes You Feel Like a Sculptor Without the Heavy Lifting
7. Because You’ll Start Seeing Potential Bases Everywhere
8. Because It Impresses People Who Have Never Tried It
9. Because It Gives You a Reason to Hoard Wool Colors Like a Squirrel in Fall
10. Because It’s Just Plain Fun
