 Rug or mat hooking is a uniquely North American fiber art. It typically involves using a simple hook to pull continuous loops of fabric strips through a woven foundation. Pioneers of this art form drew their own designs and utilized recycled scraps of fabric. Participants in this workshop, in addition to making their own 8×10-inch hooked mat, will learn about the history of rug hooking and see examples of various design styles that have evolved over the years.
