Designs for Primitive Rug Hookers
by Jenny Rupp and Lisa Yeago
The newest addition to Rug Hooking Magazine’s Framework Series of books. I’m proud to point out that three Spruce Ridge artists have featured projects in this book! Cindi Gay shows how to slip cover a hand bag, Keith Kemmer uses color, value, and texture in his Shaker Diamond Mat, and Kris Miller gives a lesson on hooking with roving in Old Saint Nick. There are 19 terrific projects to choose from; instructions and patterns are included along with lots of helpful information. No rug hooking library would be complete without this book!

I love these wonderful primitive colors over textures but they are terrific for solid wools too. Some of my favorites are Mustard Paint, Redware, and Sweet Annie.

Rug Hooks
All are hand made from exotic wood. (I am assured that no endangered trees are used.) They are a work of art to your eye and feel like silk in your hand...
These pencil-style rug hooks are available in two hook sizes—medium and large. The hand carved handles have rings at the top which have a pleasant, soothing rhythm while you are hooking! Available in birds eye maple, rosewood, pacific yew, zebrawood, purpleheart and ebony. Allow me to pick the wood for you. Please specify hook size—medium or large.
Price $25.00
Hooks are not available for teacher/wholesale discounts.

Roving
Mohair
Beautiful soft gray mohair from my pampered angora goats. It has been washed and carded into roving (a continuous loose “rope” of mohair). Blended with soft gray sheep wool. Overdyes beautifully. Perfect for hooking sheep and other animals, or for beards or hair on people. I recommend using a primitive hook when working with mohair roving.
Price 4 oz $8.00
Lincoln
Makes great Santa beards! I used this in my Old Saint Nick project featured in Designs for Primitive Rug Hookers. 100% wool roving.
Price 4 oz $10.00
