Locker Hooking for Beginners Taught by Karen Burke
Using a tool called a locker hook, loops of unspun wool are pulled through a strong canvas and "locked" into place with a hidden "locker" yarn (or strong cotton string) creating the feel and look of textured weaving. It's inexpensive, easily learned and very versatile. You can make small projects such as coasters and hot pads, or large projects such as a rug! In class you will make a trivet/hot pad.

This was genuine, real feltmaking! We used unspun Merino Wool fiber (rovings and batts) that Suzanne hand dyed and carded. The colors blends were spectacular and the finished products - very unique hats - were truly one-of-a-kind.
Teacher and students show off their finished creations.
