Mini Book Review List

Just in case you want to grow your rug making skills, we found some great books on the subject.  They all have wonderful designs and how-to instructions.  Check them out!  Jane Marie

The Braided Rug Book (below left) is my favorite.  Jane Marie

 

 

 

 

 

 

Floorcloth Magic covers painted canvas rugs.  Lisa Curry Mair makes it simple and coats of polyurethane make them durable. Nancy

 

 

I didn't have the benefit of Jane Marie's rug making lessons from our grandmother and consequently didn't get interested in handmade rugs until I was an adult.  Fortunately for me, I discovered Rug Hooking for the First Time, which spells out everything a newbie needs to know.  Nancy

PS  Then I found "The Secrets of Finishing Hooked Rugs" by Margaret Siano.  I'm not an expert on hooked rugs by any means, but this book may well be a must for any rug maker's library.

   
The Knitted Rug Book by Donna Druchunas, author oa ll kinds of knitting books, goes a different direction, toward the knitted rug.  And I have to admit, the possibilities are amzing AND easy.  Wahoo!  Nancy
