Hey everyone, It's nice to be here. Thank you for accepting me into your forum. You can call me Cabra. Recently, I just got a felting kit for Christmas. I've been looking up forums and tutorials so that I could get better at it since it's pretty fun. And painful! It's only been about two weeks, but I've already pricked my fingers a billion times . I am looking forward to reading more of your posts. Hopefully, we can become good friends as well.

Welcome Cabra. You should find mountains of information and advice here and on the Studio HERE if you haven't already visited. I too started with lots of sore fingers and blood (and a blue cloud with lightning sitting over my head! ). You can buy leather finger and thumb protectors which may help with that. Please ask whatever you like, there will always be someone with the answer to your questions, and do show us your work too.

welcome to the forum. I make my own padded finger covers using a roll of carvers tape.

I have been reading some of the advice and thank you for the one about leather protectors. The thing is, I have leather protectors, but they are very frustrating when I'm trying to do smaller stuff. They kind of get in the way. Welcome Cabra! I'm glad you joined us. We look forward to seeing your work. welcome to the forum. I make my own padded finger covers using a roll of carvers tape. Thanks for your welcome. Also, I haven't tried carvers tape as a substitute for the finger guards I have. I will have to try it out.

Welcome, Cabra. I feel you! I also like small needle felted projects, and somehow always manage to poke my fingers at least 3 times per hour! I have leather protectors, but they get in the way sometimes, you are right! I hope to see some of your projects soon!
