5.0 out of 5 stars FABULOUS TIPS FOR RUG HOOKERS!, December 3, 2003
Great color photos accompany the text!

Great tips (fences, cars, bodies of water!), including dye formulas, hooking technique, color selection! Excellent advice from the voice of experience.

Great book for all ruggers -- you never know when you'll find yourself using the advice, even if you don't hook pictorials.

If you are hooked on pictorials, be sure to check our Sarah Province's rugs featured in Nov/Dec 2003 Rug Hooking Mag. Heart-melting!

Happy Hooking!
