Hooking ~

I have been bitten once again by the Hooking Bug ~

but then again, when am I not infected with wool venom?

I'm working on a couple of small too-dads for the web show on sunday evening ~

this one is almost done…

little pumpkin folk

... there is just something about working with that wool…

it pulls you in and wraps itself around your heart.

don't you think?

{of course you do}

yes, I'm working on burlap.
no, it's not my favorite ~ but I will use whatever is at hand.
I prefer to hook on linen….you?

Here is "Old Tom"~

the rug I showed you yesterday….

YES it will be a paper pattern, available soon!!

I wanted to add a little 'something' to the finish of the rug...

 I like the triple-border too.

perfect Autumn colors ~

~~~  I swear I am thee wonkiest hooker I know!

I used an abundance of as-is wools from Heavens to Betsy

for this rug and I love how it all comes together for his feathers….

all of my loops are akimbo ~ heading this way & that ~ but that's OK with me :)

and here is where that little feather ended up…

I used it for his 'beard' !!
