Purl and Loop

Purl & Loop presents needlecraft kits and project ideas that require only a few hours of time and a small amount of materials so our target market can experience relatively quick gratification and satisfaction. We do the work of seeking out high quality material sources to support your needle felting, crewel embroidery and knitting and crochet projects. In short, we want to make it easy for you to maximize your precious creative hours.

Purl & Loop has designed needle felted bowl kits that yield a three-inch felted wool bowl in about one to two hours. The kits have all of the tools and supplies required and include detailed photo instructions, approximately half an ounce of wool, felting needles and a three-inch Styrofoam ball that is used to mold the bowl shape. These kits come in a variety of contemporary color combinations. The process is easy to learn and quick to complete. Purl & Loop also sells Woolbuddy whimsical needle felting kits and Wool & Hoop crewel embroidery kits.

Stop by the ATX Hackerspace booth where you can see our MAME arcade cabinet, among other projects (like our MEME cabinets). We’ll also be running a workshop where you can learn to solder from some of our members and assemble a blinking “HackBat” badge that proclaims you can solder!
