Automatic Rug Hook Needle

Each Memorial Day and Labor Day weekend our little community has a Peddlers Fair. This year MM found this and brought it home to me:


Please note it's called an EZ Automatic Hook Rug Needle


The "Simple" instructions are on the back of the box.



Looks like too much work for me. I think I'll put it in a nice display case and hang it in my studio.

MM knew I would like it and was sweet to buy it for me.


Til next time Ronda

  1. Nice vintage punch rug hook.
    Lots of people are punch hooking but I like the look of the old fashion way of hooking. Speaking of hooking, I should return to my hooking soon if I ever want to finish my rug. I'm almost done but since I've had visitors for the whole mont of August and beginning of September, I didn't pulled a hoop.

    Hugs,

    1. Hi Julia. I've done some small punch needle pieces but don't think I'd try a rug. I'm making the bouquets and boutonnieres for my son's weeding so I haven't been able to hook as much as I like either. Hoping to get back to it soon.

  2. I have one of those but have never tried it.
    I do think it will look good displayed.
