Tufting Starter Kit (Frame, Tufting Machine, and Cloth)

Please note: We are currently taking pre-orders for kits with cut-pile machines, and for kits with loop-pile machines. This means if you place an order today for any kit it will ship within 4 weeks. 

The perfect set-up if you've never tufted before, our tufting kits include the three components you’ll need to get started. Choose between our standard cut or loop tufting machines (AK I or AK II) in the drop-down menu. 

Kit includes: 

• 1 wooden tufting frame, which clamps to any standard table. Yarn feeder and screws included. Ships flat but easy to assemble. 
• 1 tufting machine: Either a cut pile (AK-I) OR loop pile (AK-II) 
• 1 yard of primary tufting cloth (enough to make four 28” x 28” projects)
• A 30 day warranty including parts and labor (to extend your warranty, check out our one-year service package)  

Kit does NOT include: 

• Yarn 
• Clamps* (to attach frame to table)
• Phillips head screwdriver to assemble frame

*We recommend C-clamps or bar clamps, available at any hardware store 

Please use the links to read more about the individual products in the kit, including dimensions and specificifications.

For customers outside of the U.S., please note that both tufting machines use an  

A/B plug, and might require an adapter to work elsewhere. If you’re unsure which plug is used in your country, check out this list. Adapters are easily purchasable online.
