A comprehensive primer that will have you hooking your way through simple to more difficult projects-withstep-by-step photos! Rug hooking at its simplest is pulling loops of colorful wool fabric through a piece of linen backing to create beautiful designs for the floor or wall.

In Basic Rug Hooking,you will learn what tools and materials you need to get started, and how to pull your first loops. Once you've learned and practiced the basics, you will be ready to try any of the five hooked projects included. Each project includes the pattern and complete step-by-step illustrated instructions. The styles of rugs you can make once you've learned the basic hooking process are endless. Rug hookers today create traditional florals, bright geometrics, pictorials, portraits, and primitives perfect for the modern farmhouse. Basic Rug Hookingteaches you everything you need to know to start hooking today!
