Learn rug hooking without leaving home!
we’re are the rest of the replays, I only see 2022?
thanks Cindi,
Click on the new icon, All Past Replays. I keep the current year on the first line because it makes it easy to get to. The rest are still available, but are accessible from the page you get to when you click the All Past Replays icon.
I was late in making up my mind (if I even have one!) to join the pencil case/purse so when I went to Amazon they were all sold out of the pencil cases. Are there any other sellers from whom I can buy?
I have many. You should have seen that link sprinkled throughout the communications, but to make it easy, here it is: https://cindigayrughooking.com/product/pencil-pouch-make-a-hooked-purse-the-easy-way-pouch-only/ Even better, I have them on sale right now.
Hi Cindi,
I was wounding if you could talk about hooking a monochromatic rug. Were fo you put your values? Hiw many values do you need to make the rug work and not get board when hooking it? I haven’t started my big rug yet. I was thinking about hooking it monochromatic using black.I like the chair pad I did but I think the big rug will be too busy with my furniture. I got the idea from the last book from rug hooking magazine by Donna Hrkman. I think it would be fun but I’m nervous about it too.
Do you own the Practical Color Planning Class? I talk about creating a value study and then using that to hook your rug. Those lessons would be helpful. When we Color Plan, we are actually Value Planning. Choose your color wisely. A cool black to gray is not for everyone, you might want to use something warmer. You could use beiges to brown, for instance.
How do you use the pen tool?
How do you get the shape tools to work and have a colored line? I can see them when I open up the line color tool, but then the lines of the shapes disappear when I close the tool.
Glad it is working for you. I think there is a need for another session. I have not scheduled it yet.
The other day you mentioned hooking with mottled, overdyed wool… this type of wool seems to be readily available now. Possibly due to the lack of textures out there. I’ve been hooking for about three years and have always wondered about hooking with mottled/splotchy wool. You mentioned pulling up a loop until you get the color you need for the area being hooked. I get it, but it sure seems like this mottled wool could be wasteful or a pain in the butt! LOL. I’m wondering if you could address this, since it seems our wool choices are going down this avenue.
Thanks- pat
Make it a great day!
