Rug Hooking Hint Today

I enjoy making starry skies and this is a fun technique!

Using shorter strips of wool and selecting several colours of blue and choosing golds, yellow, etc. for stars you can hook the sky in swirls or waves. The mountains here were hooked with a dip-dyed piece of wool and I was delighted with how they came out. This rug - Home At Last- is in a private collection.
