Shabby Sheep Wool
Beautiful hand dyed wool at a great price. I tend to lean towards the brighter colors now, but I always keep Karen Kahle’s colors in stock too.

Cindi Gay Rug Hooking
I started my website in 2001 with beginners in mind. Since I had just started rug hooking, I was very aware about how hard it was to find information.

My current project (and probably for the next few years) is a room sized rug. I started posting about the rug from the first day, […]
