Get ready to learn rug hooking…
Learn about the next Wool Sale
About once a month I plan to offer odd shaped pieces from my personal closet. This collection has grown over the years. Many of you want to buy small pieces to get variation. We’ll solve two problems a bit at a time. Register for the Wool Sale.
Here are the simple steps to rug hook:
How to rug hook
- Push hook into the backing.
Put the hook in where it makes sense — do NOT count threads!
- Scoop up the wool from underneath with the hook.
Move the hook, not the wool. Wrapping the wool onto the hook will cause twists.
- Pull the wool to the surface and adjust the height of the loop.
Pull it up as high as it is wide.
- Repeat a million times.
Concentrate on pulling the loops up high enough and spreading them apart. Avoid overcrowding.
