Punching with both ends of Valdani floss

I decided to try punching with both ends of Valdani floss –

3 strand ball threaded through the needle together.

Punching from Both Ends of a Valdani Ball:

I started with one ball of 3-strand Valdani floss.

I used color P2 (olive green).

I found both ends of the ball of Valdanifloss;

I had to dig around in the middle of the ball to find the second end.

I threaded both ends through the medium tip

of my Ultra Punch needle at the same time.

Then, I just punched normally.  

In this free pattern, I wanted to make the grass

have the look of hills

so I started by punching in a hill shape.

Then, I filled in the rest of the grass area.

Here’s the view from the front.

Conclusion:

Because I was punching with twice as much thread,

the punching went faster than if I was punching with a single Valdani 3 strand floss.

This is an good way to speed up punching larger areas

without changing how things look by punching with 6 strands

or punching with pearl cotton.

If you give punching with both ends of Valdani floss a try,

let me know what you think!
