Hi ladies,
I'm wondering if you know anywhere I can purchase wool strips to make a hooked rug. I'm only wanting to make one rug for my cabin, so I don't want to invest in a wool strip cutter as they are kind of pricey and I don't make enough rugs to have to buy one. I absolutely despise cutting the strips and I have one hand that bothers me quite a bit to do something like that. Thanks!


~~Blessings, Mikki Jo

Bev- That's a great website!! I just started rug hooking! I was in Frannie's (Cabin Creek) Mama's Day Swap with a gal who lives close to me and we met and just hit it off right away! She is a fabulous rug hooker and has taken the time to teach me. (Much to the delight of my MIL as she is an incredible rug hooker. She does fine hooking as opposed to primitive.) I cannot wait to see your rug, Mikki!!

I LOVE rug hooking too!! I never knew you could buy the strips like that. I got a strip cutter years ago when I used to hook rugs to sell. I try real hard to do at least one project a year to sort of justify the expense. haha
Have fun!!
