Punch Needle Rug Hooking

Overview

Students will learn how to use the punch needle to make a small project that can be hung on a wall or used as a “mug rug.” The basic skill set gained will allow students to move on to larger projects like table runners, pillows, and rugs with confidence.

During the class, students will:

transfer a simple pattern onto a cotton, monk’s cloth backing;

prepare materials; and

begin punching a mug rug or wall-hanging.

We’ll also discuss various ways you might want to finish your rug after all the hooking is done.

No experience is necessary; just come prepared to play with all the colors!
