Embroidery Hoops

An embroidery hoop is a tool used in needlework, consisting of two concentric rings, to keep fabric taut during stitching, ensuring even tension and a smooth finish.

Purpose:
Embroidery hoops help keep the fabric taut, which is crucial for achieving even stitches and preventing puckering or wrinkling. 

Construction:
They typically consist of two rings, one slightly smaller than the other, that hold the fabric between them. 

Types:
  • Screw Tension: The most common type, with a screw on the outer ring to adjust the tension. 
  • Spring Tension: Often used for machine embroidery, but can also be used for hand embroidery and cross stitch.

Choosing the right hoop:

Size: Select a hoop that is appropriate for the size of your project. 

Comfort: Choose a hoop that feels comfortable to hold and work with.
