Product Details

The Groz-Beckert 40 Gauge Crown is a fine finishing needle with one barb on each of its three edges, positioned near the tip. This arrangement allows you to catch surface fibers with shallow pokes for controlled, delicate work.

When I use it

This is my favorite needle for touching up an animal’s face when I want to refine the wool without pushing it into a deeper indentation. I use it for small adjustments and gentle surface smoothing after the main shaping and firming are complete.

  • Gauge: 40
  • Working blade: Triangular, with a Crown barb arrangement
  • Barb arrangement: 111 — one barb on each of three edges
  • Manufacturer: Groz-Beckert

 FROM PASTURE TO PRODUCT 

From Our Flock to Your Hands 

At Bear Creek Felting, our story begins on our North Dakota sheep farm, where I've been carefully breeding sheep for their felting wool since 2005. From choosing the right breeding stock to caring for our flock, every decision is made with wool quality in mind.

Just a few miles from the farm, we wash, dye, and card our wool in small batches at our Fort Ransom fiber mill. It's a hands-on process that allows us to pay close attention to the quality of the fiber we share with you.

Whether you're creating your first needle-felted animal or adding to a growing collection, my goal is to provide beautiful materials and tools that make your felting experience a joy.
