For tufting, you'll need a tufting gun (cut pile or loop pile), primary backing cloth like monk's cloth, yarn (wool, acrylic, etc.), and a wooden frame to stretch the fabric. Accessories include replacement needles, lubricant, strong scissors, and adhesive or latex glue for securing the yarn. You'll also want a secondary backing fabric, optional projection equipment for design transfer, and trimming tools like https://cotonmode.co.uk/collections/fitted-sheet electric clippers. Don't forget safety gear like a dust mask and ear protection. Supplies can be found at online retailers, specialty tufting shops, or local craft stores.
