Rug hooking wools are shown roughly in color order. For more information, click on the photo. On the detail page I will post a photo of what this wool looks like hooked and examples of how it was used in a rug. If you have an example photo you would like to share, please contact me.
All wools below are offered as 1 yard pieces. I also offer a fat half yard – a one yard piece split in two so that your strips will still be 1 yard long.
Hook your project with my current favorites. It's been a while since I've had so many of the right ones together in one place. They have been chosen to work together. This bundle has 31 different wools. Enough to hook two dark background and one light background stair risers providing you mix the wools.
View this PDF for more details. It has a photograph of every wool in the bundle. Save $11.

This is my favorite dark background and the best thing is that I can make more when I need it. Each strip of wool starts out as a different color so when they come out of the dye pot, they are all different. The colors will vary based on when they are dyed but you can add more and keep going -- just like sour dough starter.
