Rug Hooking Studio
One of the crafts I have not tried is rug hooking. Apparently my grandmother hooked lovely rugs but unfortunately I've never seen one. Yesterday, during a visit to Mahone Bay, Novel Scotia, I visited Encompassing Designs Rug Hooking Studio. This studio is owned by Christine Little. Christine also designs her own patterns for hooking.

I hooked rugs back in the 70's. It was a good handcraft, but really didn't "hook" me.
ReplyDeleteSo, did you buy any supplies?
Thanks, for commenting, Carol. No, I didn't purchase anything at this shop but there were great supplies for rug hookers. They do mail order.
DeleteWay back when (before there was dirt) I took a night school class that covered various forms of craft and rug hooking was one of them. I've never done any since but not because I didn't like it.
ReplyDeleteI've never done any rug hooking. However, classes are offered in Newfoundland but I've never bothered. I have too many other things I enjoy doing instead.
