FAQ
How many needles does the Rosette Pincushion hold?
It has 8 pre-punched holes, each designed to hold a pre-threaded plaiting needle.
What is it made from?
The exterior is red faux leather with discreet branding on the tail, and the interior is sponge, which cushions the needles for safe storage.
How big is it?
It measures 18 cm from the top of the rosette to the bottom of the tails, so it is compact enough to hang from an apron while you work.
Can I attach it to my plaiting apron?
Yes. The keyring attachment connects to the D ring on The Original Plaiting Apron or The Ultimate Plaiting Apron, and it will also clip to a grooming bag or kit box.
Are needles included?
No, the pincushion is supplied on its own. Needles, thread and plaiting aprons are sold separately.
How do I clean it?
Wipe the faux leather exterior with a damp cloth and allow it to dry naturally away from direct heat. Remove needles before longer-term storage so the sponge keeps its shape.
