I'm with you Lori, I want to learn to do this craft but I've got so many other I just haven't found the time for it. I believe the type you are refering to is just called rug hooking as opposed to latch hooking which uses precut pieces of yarn. If I'm not mistaken I believe Aunt Jenny from this forum does this type of craft(rug hooking). If you do take it up, post pictures please.

what my friend has shown me is that you use monks cloth and take thin strips of wool and hook them into the cloth- it is a very primative looking craft. |

Please define rug hooking. I make rag rugs, but I'm not sure if it's the same thing you're interested in.

I cannot master those things that I have not tried.

I planned to take classes last year, but could not. The woman offered a kit for $10.00 to start learning. Her class itself was free. I hope they hold it again this year.
