I designed a rug for the New York State fair, in which we won the blue ribbon. I have had many requests for animal rugs since, so I decided to do a large rug pattern. I also have four separate rugs; a cow, a sheep, a pig and a chicken available, check our other listings to find those (see picture #3). This pattern is 28 x 35 inches. It is truly a special design, so fun and whimsical, yet primitive and folky at the same time.
All of our patterns are drawn on monks cloth, paying close attention to the straight of the grain. Linen is available for an extra fee. Please select above if you would like your kit to come on monks cloth or linen.
Patterns and kits come with a colored cover photo, unless otherwise noted, including a rug recipe card with our recommended woolen amounts and the size of strip we used to hook it. However, you may hook using whatever size strips you would like.
Kits include the pattern and all woolens needed to hook the design. We have included wool amounts that we used (plus a bit extra) to hook the rug. We realize that all hookers hook differently. Some hookers hook much looser and will have leftover wool, some hook higher or tighter and may need extra. We encourage you to keep all wool tags that label your wool as well as your rug recipe card, in the event you may need to purchase more.
The wool in your kit does NOT come cut into strips. Due to time constraints, we are not able to cut larger kits anymore. If you are a new hooker, please check out our New Hookers section for a selection of smaller kits that we still do offer our cutting services for, as we realize not all new hookers have a cutter.
