Basic Rug Hooking for Beginners (Saturday)

Join us in this introduction to Traditional Rug Hooking and develop a new passion! It is like coloring except we will be using beautiful wool strips instead of crayons! Tracy will introduce you to the tradition of rug hooking by teaching the basic techniques, as she talks about the equipment, supplies and history. Students will dive right in to the fun of actually hooking a charming little mat, pillow, or wall hanging-however the students want to finish it. The skills that you learn in this class will allow you to make your own future rugs.

Anyone who has taken Tracy’s class in the past, are welcome to bring their project and join us for a refresher or a show and tell.

Students will have their choice between patterns/kits Hit & Miss Hearts or Celtic Knot Shamrock.

The materials fee includes: Hand drawn pattern on linen backing, pattern pre stretched over a wooden frame, hook, pre-cut 100% wool strips, color photo, printed instructions, pen and notebook in a pouch.

Students should bring: Scissors and smiling faces.
