Thank you Heidi Brilliant explanation. I bought a hook at a wool fair ages ago and forgot how to use it . Thank you
Thank you for the very clear explanation and pictures of how to finish a rug or hsngibg. It’s very simple, so I understand that’s why it’s glossed over in most articles, but if you’ve never done it, it can still be hard to visualize. Plus you had the tip of trimming the bulk at the corners. That may have occurred to me, but without someone with experience telling me it worked,I would have been afraid it would have encouraged unraveling or something. So excellent post!
