Great video! Nice to see how both Punch Needle and Rug Hooking can work together, using the strengths of both. I think I might punch the background of an upcoming rug that will otherwise be hooked Thanks for the tip!
Thanks, you just verbalized well what I found I didn't like about punching. But, I like using yarn. Debbie PS: Just signed up for August 15th class so happy for it being an in person class. See you then.
Sure thing - I am using a 'primitive' or 'coarse' hook. The medium sized hook is a 5mm - a little smaller but better if you're working with a variety of cuts. The primitive is oftern too klunky with thinner strips. x
No. I do the opposite. There's no right way... see what seems right to you. It's not like needlepoint where you really need to work a certain way. Do what makes sense to you!××
Can you pleeeease explain how to hold the needle; turn the needle (or frame); thread comes out front- side- or what???? No one has actually shown to us beginners how to hold the needle - or maybe it’s just me. Thanks a bunch!!!!

the tip about using a washer to control the pile length was so helpful!
Love this, what a great way to work detail, I love mixing. Great video, thank you.
I appreciate your cleverness. Wonderful tips! 😊
Thank you. You saved me on the first punch. I was worried about how to achieve eyes. I think this might help
Very well done thanks 🙏
Thankyou
Thank you Deana :) lots of tricks and process information :) you always inspire me!
You are so clever I love watching you

Thank you for this video, can you please tell me, what size or what kind of hook you used on this project?
Than you so much.

Newbie here...I thought one did the details first and then the background. Is that not correct? Thank you.

Yes I'll do a video just on that! I'll do that this holiday weekend
