Felting needles are barbed needles that can be used to interlock wool fibers. As the needle is moved up and down, the barbs catch the scales of the wool and entangle them, creating felt.   These needles work a little different than a standard compacting needle
 
This pack of four Speciality felting needles  4 star spiral needle that are twisted .   It is my old favorite with a twist. the twist offsets the barsbs and  allows it to make smaller holes while the star shape gives it 5 sides to felt faster
