Thanks so much for the instructions. I have done hooked rugs, and I crochet, so I can see exactly what you are talking about.
What a great idea! Got too many UFO's right now, but will certainly keep this in mind. I wrote down your instructions to keep in my "planned projects".

I am looking forward to your pictures of primative hooking. I think hooked rugs are so beautiful. Do you create scenes in your rugs?

Gal

No I do not create scenes ,just abstract patterns which I design myself usually based on nature but not always. My Mother likes to make scenes or pictures, flowers, boats anything really. I let the fabric colours speak to me i do not plan a rug first then look for fabrics if you know what i mean.

my grandmother used to make these rugs, I wish I knew how to do them.

Wow, I love your rug. Are you going to post a tutorial here for all of us to enjoy on how to make your cool rag rugs?

Please, please, please post a tutorial. I tried making a crocheted rag rug last summer but it ended up looking like 1/2 of a bra. I think this method would give me the results I was hoping to acheive with the last one.
