Welcome to the February issue of We Like Rug Hooking! As winter lingers, we’re excited to share a fresh collection of stories and inspiration to keep your creative spirit flourishing.
This issue blends the old with the new. Start by digging into the annals of rug-hooking history with articles on Maine’s traditional sculpted-hooking technique and early hooked-rug auctions. Then, turn the page to the future of the art and read about young rug hookers! In between, you’ll find inspiration for using up your stash, hooking three-dimensional objects, improving your approach to dying fabrics, and more. And with two downloadable patterns (Cool Bear and Hearts for a February Home) you’ll have enough hooking to carry you into spring.
As always, we hope this issue inspires you to continue creating and connecting through the art of rug hooking.
Happy hooking,
