~ 30 Years & Counting ~


I guess you could say that I qualify...
although I don't consider myself as being OLD at 55 yrs.,
I would agree with the fact that having been a hooker for 30+ years ~
....oh well I am an Old Hooker then!


just finished another little Hooker's Pocket model...
and I think this one is my favorite so far ~
{I have so many that I want to make!}


again, this one has been Rug Punched ~
using my Oxford #14 and 3ply wool tapestry yarn in some of my favorite colors.


it is lined with cotton fabrics ~ 
... makes it strong to hold your hooks/scissors & such.
 

I added blanket stitch to the edges & bottom 
with DMC #3 perle cotton in 611 {drab brown}


and a strap made from 7/8" cotton twill tape from Joann's stores.


I will wear this with Hooker Pride at the shows & hook-ins...
 
 Pattern will be available in my Etsy Shop next week, 
{along with Froggy!!}

*thanks for all the kind remarks about Froggy! ~ you all crack me up!*



Blessings from the Farm
