Rug Hooking Course

Workshop
In this 1-day workshop, we will discuss how to make mats, rugs and wall hangings with beautiful sheep’s wool for this Ross Farm scene. We will discuss the history of rug hooking, the equipment required, and all things rug hooking, so you can hook many beautiful pictures, too. You will be provided with a kit and the tools you need to rug-hook. This includes a pattern on a linen backing, cut wool strips, a hook, and an instruction sheet that gives you a guide to all your wool colours. All in all, it will be a fun day of learning and laughing for $95.00 + HST. Pre-registration is required. You can register through our website (https://thepedlarsshop.ca/collections/learning-workshops/products/rug-hooking-workshop) or in person at our gift shop.
