Types of Items/Services Offered: Jen and I offer everything you
need for the art of traditional North American rug hooking, including
original patterns on linen ( primitive, traditional, and contemporary),
the best quality wools (hand dyed by us and also off the bolt), hooks,
our own Maine made and personally designed rug hooking frames, hooks,
binding tape, you name it. Additionally we consign items from other
Maine artisans including frame covers, snip pockets, hand spun and dyed
yarns, and knitting bags. We also will be introducing hand made, all
natural soaps and vintage hand picked items to our shop in 2014, as
well as our own line of custom turned hooks, again, made in Maine.
Additionally, we teach our craft in both our Maine and Tennessee studios
and offer hooking nights for hookers to share their craft, chat, and
have tasty refreshments.
