Hooked in the Mountains XIX

rug by Christine Manges
Made using simple loops of dyed wool, hooked rugs are a folk-art tradition constantly being celebrated and reinvented. The Green Mountain Rug Hooking Guild presents this 19th annual festival at the Champlain Valley Expo in Essex Junction, offering visitors all things rug-hooking: completed masterpieces, demonstrations, classes, and the opportunity to purchase supplies and fabrics. Whether seasoned “hookers” or newcomers, guests will likely be amazed by the breadth of this fiber field.
