  1. 1.Print the template (see next page). Draw it up on the fabric with a marker pen. Thread yarn into your punch needle. Apply as shown on the pack. Tip: The marker lines dissolve in water.
  2. 2.Place the fabric in the embroidery hoop. For a bold effect, alternate between working on the front and back and vary the length of the needle. We used FRAYA yarns.
  3. 3.Make sure that you push the needle right to the bottom before gently withdrawing it again. Remove your work from the hoop. Cut the fabric to about 2 cm around the face. Brush glue on the back to secure the yarn and prevent the work from unravelling. Leave the glue to dry. Fold fabric 2 cm to the wrong side.
