That's a great rug, Lisa! I would love to try my hand at that. I bet it's a good way to use up some scraps too. Thanks so much for sharing.

Very pretty. Isn't it fun?? I love doing locker hooking. It's good travel or TV work. Redsalt - have you actually stepped on it? They are really nice and soft. Hobby Lobby also has books and supplies.

Very beautiful and colorful, I recently did a workshop on this and made a hot pad holder. Now I am ready to make a real rug. I love doing this. It is a very easy take along project. Yes indeed it is another addiction..

It is fabulous!!! I just saw this tech. at Joanns today while looking in the yarn section. I think I'll have to look into this.

thanks for posting.

How big is the rug? How long did it take for you to complete?

Very nice rug. I was wondering about the care of a rug like this? Is it something you could throw in the wash or just spot clean with a rug cleaner solution.

DeniseB the rug is 58x33" and it took about a year working on just here and there.
Ctherrie if it could fit in the washer you could machine wash it. I have made smaller ones for placemats that I throw in the washer and dryer.
CindyG yes we walk on it but it is not in a real high traffic area of the house it is in the hallway upstairs.
