I still want to learn how to make the knots to make a rug. Now, this is not latch hooking. This is somehow making knots that join together. I saw a long time ago a man in my eye doctor's office bring in one of these rugs he made.
The pattern was on both sides, but the nap of the rug was on one side and very thick. The middle of the rug was a rectangle of greenish blue rug, then with a white wide border he had pink flowers with green stems all around the greenish blue center. Ending in the white. It was stunning. The ended side of the knots had the nap coming up through a loop and tightened. 

Anyway, to step up one on the latch hooking we have done here, I would love to learn to make these knots to make rugs.

Posting for Nella, smile.

Happy Wednesday to all of you crafters out there.

 

I hope everyone is having a good week.

 

We have been having so many new classes here at KK it is hard to keep up with them all.  Unfortunately I had to miss the big crafting event on Sunday, but it sounded like a lot of fun.

 

Since so much has been going on, I would like to know if some of you learned a new craft, and if so what was it?

 

Would you like to learn more about that particular craft?

 

I signed up for the loom knit pot holder class with Terry P. and learned how to make a new stitch that I really like.

 

Joyce taught us how to make a very cute shamrock using pipe cleaners and pony beads.  I was able to share this craft with a young man with multiple disabilities.  I love sharing these simple projects with my IL clients.

 

Last night I learned how to make a rabbit out of 2 wash cloths and a hand towel.  I sure hope Terry K. has patterns for more animals.  

 

I look forward to hearing about everybody's experiences.

 

Nell
