Rug Hooking

 I've started to learn do the old fashioned rug hooking. It is a primitive art where women would take their old wool clothing and cut it in to strips and weave them in to a burlap type material and create beautiful rugs and such for their home. Here are my first three attempts.

This is actually a tracing of my hand
 This one I call 'Sheep"
 And these
 "O' Sheep"
This was my very first attempt at Hooking.
