Written and published in 1947, not much has changed in the world of rug hooking except for better availability of woolens, linens for backings and tools. The techniques are the same and reading this felt like a visit with a grandma who loves to hook rugs. Martha Batchelder writes about the basics and shows wonderful (black & white) examples of patterns and borders. She conveys the message that rug hooking is an 'art ' born from necessity. A 'must have' addition to your rug hooking library.
