Clover 507079 Pen Style Needle Felting Tool- Original Version- 1 Pack

I bought this for my daughter who’s really gotten into felting lately, and it has quickly become her absolute favorite tool. She loves the pen-style grip, which makes it so much easier for her to do detailed work without hand fatigue. It’s lightweight, well-balanced, and feels very natural in the hand—especially for smaller hands. The option to adjust how many needles are inserted is great too, depending on how fine or broad the area she’s working on is. But a word of caution: this thing is crazy sharp. Definitely not a toy. We’ve had zero accidents, but it’s worth noting if you’re buying for a younger crafter—supervision is a must. That said, its sharpness is exactly what makes it so precise and effective. Pros: ✔️ Comfortable, pen-style grip for better control ✔️ Customizable with one, two, or three needles ✔️ Great for detail work ✔️ High-quality and holds up to regular use ✔️ Excellent for beginner to intermediate felters Cons: ✘ Very sharp—handle with care Final Thoughts: If you’re into needle felting (or shopping for someone who is), this tool is worth every penny. It’s precise, comfortable, and built to last. My daughter now insists on using this for every project!

This is the first pen style needle felting tool I have used, and am very glad to have it! I have a wider tool (also by Clover) that holds five needles, but that isn't good on smaller or 3-D projects (I use it on cookie cutter ornaments and wall hangings). For smaller projects and 3-D items, I have been using a single needle alone, without a holder. I decided it was time to ramp it up a bit and try some pen style holders. I chose the Clover brand 1-3 needle pen because I have liked other Clover products, including some for needle felting. The needle holder is a good size and shape, and works very well. So far I have just used it with three needles, but I sure like how much faster things work up doing so. The needles are placed close together, so it is easy to control the area being worked on. NOTE: The three needles included are "fine" (Clover needles only come in two sizes) and are best for finishing work, details, and small pieces. You will want to use lower gauge felting needles for working up cores. Clover does not number their needles, but these are maybe 39/40? If you need the needles to go further in the project you are working on -- like a larger 3-D animal -- the top pink section is removable. Just beware the needles could break more easily (and is not recommended with the included needles), especially if using 2/3 needles. Twist the white ring off the pink handle to change out or replace needles. The clear needle cover has ridges in it that fit over an indentation in the pink top of the tool.

Worth it! Love this needle holder. Game changer for felting.

I will be using this for small work, so i don't mind that it needs small needles in order to close the protective cap. For those of you that said you have to use the Clover needles, that is because they come in small. Use all the med and large needles you want, just make sure you don't put the protective cap on. If you need to use larger needles, then keep the cap off until you are finished... simple. No breakage. For those of you that complain that the needles break, blame how you use it and what on. If you are doing deep penetrating packing or shaping a core, take out the small thin ones and use large needles. Small needles are for finishing a surface and doing small light duty jobs of felting. You should not need to go deep at all with the needles that come with it. If you do break needles, it might also be because you are not going in and out at the exact same angle. The largest thickest needles will break if you do that. But even the cheapest and thinnest needles will last a long time if you learn how to handle them. Don't blame the holder! Blame it on inexperience.

First off, all felting needles are brittle, and they will eventually lose their sharpness, or break. This little tool saves me so much time because I'm getting 3x the work with one motion. What I've learned: I snapped one of the needles when I was going through an already dense part of my piece. = With this tool, I don't have the same type of feedback like when I use a single needle. I couldn't tell that the density was too much for the needle. I took out the broken needle, and then proceeded to continue working with just two needles. (I probably should have went to bed after I snapped the first needle.) Well the piece I'm working on does have a wire armature, but I got so use to going through the wool so easy, I started using more force than I would ordinarily use with a single needle, and I hit the wire, and broke the second needle. Conclusion: I can either work super fast, which can sometimes lead to carelessness, and I will snap needles, or I can recognize that because I'm getting 3x the work with one motion, I'm still ahead of the game if I go slower, and am more cautious. Sometimes I'm not going to care, like when I'm trying to add a piece, and I have it in place just right, and I'm going to felt with a stupid level of force to just get it on there. I'll probably break the most needles when I'm tired, and it's late, and I should have been sleeping an hour ago. I'll most likely be the most cautious when I don't have backup needles. (This is similar to reckless abandonment when dispensing shampoo when it's a new bottle, compared to when you just have 1/2" left at the bottom of the bottle.) I'm going to order a second one so that I can have a higher gauge needle, and not have to change the needles out. This will most likely lead to less needle breakage because I can move to a finer needle when I feel I've reached a certain level of density.

I really love this felting tool; it's very comfortable to hold and control and the option to use 1 to 3 needles makes it very good for both quick felting (on small to medium-sized projects) and small details. The first one I purchased was kind of defective, unfortunately, but it happens; it was still usable, but there was no way to change out the needles when they became dull, because it wouldn't open for me, I guess it was too tightly-screwed on? This last one I purchased is perfect, though, and I love it. It often does better than the 8- needle tool I have, probably because the needles are better quality. My only issue with the tool is that you can't replace the needles with just any kind, they have to be a certain size; specifically, the little bend at the top of the needles: they can't be too long, or they won't let the tool close back up, so when it is time to replace them, I'll need to keep that in mind. Otherwise, it's wonderful and I can see myself using it for a long time.

I love this felting pen! The plastic is smooth, comfortable, & feels sturdy. I already had the Dimensions-brand felting pen, so I was familiar with the 'pen' concept - but what a difference there is between the two. The Clover model comes with finer needles, but it is far more ergonomic and is a higher-quality product (and nothing has broken - unlike with the Dimensions one, which broke the first time I used it). It's fun and easy to use and comes with full instructions. The packaging also includes a detachable guard for using felting moulds; as I was unfamiliar with them, I did a quick look-up on YouTube and found a few videos on the topic, and I think it's a great little bonus for anyone who has occasion to use them. If you're considering buying a multi-needle felting product, the Clover pen is the way to go!

A great needle felting too. It makes needle felting quicker on large projects. It’s easy to hold and the needles are well spaced for my uses. I love the option to take the top portion of the guard off to use the needles longer, or put it on for shallower felting. I also appreciate the lid! That makes bringing it along to needle felt on the go so much easier.

An amazing tool, I highly recommend, it makes the work very easy. I was surprised of the quality of the tool and how fast I was able to felt with this pen-style tool, it is incredible. It comes with very specific instructions, so you could make the best out of the tool. Will buy another one, and will give it to my mum who's new to needle felting. If you are thinking about buying it, do it, it is completely worth it, you will be needle felting faster than you thought it was even possible.

Ürün çok kaliteli ve muazzam .

Ho acquistato questa penna su consiglio di un'amica. Gli aghi si cambiano facilmente, l'impugnatura è comoda e si può lavorare molto velocemente. La consiglio anche ai principianti per evitare di rompere l'ago singolo.

My only regret is that I didn't buy this sooner. I'm an avid needle felter. I've tried other needle holders and never really liked any of them. This little thing is an absolute game changer! It is good quality, waaay more comfortable to hold than a single needle and it speeds things up like crazy. I'm going to buy more of these so I can have different gauges all ready to go. I'm thrilled!

Die Clover Bastelprodukte sind super. Speziell hier habe ich festgestellt, dass die Asia Nachbauten deutlich schlechtere Qualität liefern. Der Schraubmechanismus und die Haptik sind beim Clover Produkt merklich besser als die Nachbauten von Temu bspw. Hier lohnt sich der Mehrpreis auf jeden Fall.
