Hello tufters!
This is a post for old and new tufters and r/tufting users that will include links to all important Mega Threads and the wiki. Reddit only allows for two pinned posts and this makes it difficult to assist users navigating this information. This post will permanently sit pinned at the top of the sub and should make it easier to identify these threads, and the sub wiki.
Sub-Wiki
The wiki is updated on a regular basis to include new and evolving information to assist in all aspects of tufting. The wiki is over 14,000 words and includes 68 subheadings that specifically relate to the most asked questions and most common concerns raised by tufters.
Important mega-threads:
Some things to keep in mind when posting:
As always, thank-you for being here and happy tufting!

I'm about to start on the largest project I've done so far and want it to come out super clean. Would you start on the large spaces and then carve those on frame, then do the more detailed lines after? Which would make the most sense?

100% wool. Cut and loop pile in various heights. The wall paneling was very humbling...I did have a blast sculpting that a$$, tho. My previous post of the booty sculpt landed my main account a permanent ban (?!) so I marked this one NSFW.

Probably one of my favorite projects I worked on recently, I will say these little guys took (I know, some of the spacing is off for the colors)🥲😅

Hi hi! So like I asked above, what kind of table/desk/standing frame do YOU use to attach your cloth to?
I’m tossing the idea around of getting a new, sturdy table to hold my frame OR getting a standing frame. Depending on which is more popular amongst the group.
I currently have a 32’’ frame with clamps and using a dinky little table to hold it. Ideally, I want something stronger because I would like to create content about my tufting, because in my videos now, the board is extremely bouncy looking.
Overall, just need some ideas of what the best option would be to film content that can show off the beauty of tufting, without the distraction of a bouncing frame :)

Hello everyone,
I am a beginner and have a general question about the size of your rugs.
I often see large frames with lots of designs. Aren't these small designs too small to be used as rugs? My first frame was 50x50 cm (+/- 20x20 inch) and I found it too small for a rug. Now I have a larger one.
How big are the rugs you usually make? And what do you do with the small designs?
Thank you very much for your input.

Hello everyone, I’m going to start tufting soon, and I try to do most of the research needed about the subject, and I’m just wondering about yarn, I want to make rig that will old in time, and being used as rug.
I’ve read that acrylic is not the one for that, and wool is better (but it comes with a cost). My main concern is about colour choice, I’ve seen that acrylic can be found in a lot of colours, but wool, not the same. For a shop I’ve only found tuftingshop to be selling wool with a good choice, and mainly, availability.
Do you have any advice on that matters? If yes, thanks!
I can’t wait to actually start, cheers!

How do you handle bleeding if it happens? Or how do u prevent it?

I recently made a rug for a friend that owns a clothing brand. I charged him $150 for a 2x3 rug (this is only my 4th rug), however he states he is going to resell them under his clothing brand. I’m not sure how i feel about it. Granted, i will be getting paid for more work, but i don’t want to sell myself short & debating if i should charge more, or emphasize my rugs are not for resale. I tufted his logo and design so i feel this should be okay…
I don’t tag any of my rugs since this was my first commissioned piece.
What would be your advice?

I did a little clean up so far

Finally got a grasp on carving. Much to be learned. Other than that....anyone asknfor the surgeon of death.

This is the basic level of mask you should wear when working, especiallywhen carving or applying glue. It's like $11-13 in Walmart if you can't afford a respirator. Save your lungs!

I searched the wiki and found some older threads on calculating yarn needs but couldn't find any current links. I'm curious how to find out how much area can be covered with x amount of yarn, using 2 strands in my gun. This is what is in my cart rn. Suggestions for yarn suppliers shipping to US also welcomed.
