The BunkaCraft BC-N1 Punch Needle is a custom designed, hand finished needle.
This versatile punch needle was designed to be used with Bunka Yarn, Metallic yarn, and various embroidery thread and floss. Each BC-N1 Needle is set and ready for stitching, before leaving the studio. There is no need make any adjustments. Just thread the needle and begin stitching.
We think the BC-N1 is a valuable addition to the Japanese Punch Needles.
NOTE: Bunka Embroidery thread ( yarn ) cannot be used on clothing, towels, etc. It is only used as decorative art, framed under glass.
Traditional Punch Embroidery:
The BC-N1 contains a medium size punch needle and will work beautifully with embroidery floss and other yarns / threads used in regular or traditional punch embroidery. This type of punch embroidery is used on clothing etc. Generally, the pattern is transferred onto fusible interfacing, applied to fabric and then stitched from the back. There are many good books on the market describing techniques used.
