This review is from: Harrisville Designs Traditional Rug Hooking (Toy)

First of all this price is a bargin. I bought mine at a local hobby shop for about $40. It is not much to look at when you open the box - a wooden frame, a wood hook needle, burlap fabric and some yarn. But the instructions are good and if you understand then off you go.

The great part about this project is that it is quick. If you like it then you can pick up some inexpensive yarn and burlap fabric and make your own designs.

I would invest in a real hoop to keep the fabric tight. The wood frame needs tacks (not included!) to tack down the fabric and it is a bit loosy-goosy, which could frustrate a child. Also the colors where not exact-like featured on the box-which could also frustrate a child.

I did not purchase this item as a toy. It was for me to see if I might enjoy traditional rug hooking.
I have not started the project. Product was not what I expected it to be, but then maybe I didn't read the description well enough.
Delivery, etc. and the handling of the order was just fine. Rating based only on my current interest level in completing the project.
It is cute.
