Wall Hanging Gnome
Create this joyful gnome wall hanging by pulling up one loop of wool at a time. The historic art of traditional hand hooked rugs has been admired since colonial times. Like many forms of art, hooked rugs were made out of necessity, utilizing scraps and upcycling. The class includes instruction on the art of rug hooking and the kit that contains a pattern drawn on linen, a premade hat for the Gnome, an unfinished wooden spoon to attach to the Gnome and hold the hat, Velcro double stick to attach the Gnome to the spoon and wool to finish off the back. You will also receive a rug hooking frame, a hook, and hand dyed cut wool. We should have time to finish the main part of this project on the day of class but if not, you will learn all you need to know to complete the pattern at home. Please bring your own pair of embroidery scissors with you to class!
