How to Put a Rug Hooking Pattern on the Grain
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 окт 2020
- This is a tutorial on how to put the straight exterior edges/border lines of a rug hooking pattern on the grain of the foundation. This technique also applies to any straight lines running horizontally or vertically that make up the interior elements of the pattern.
What a great video. Thank you so much for sharing! Just about to try my first freehand work (2nd project).
Thank you for this info. Just what I needed. I'm just thinking of starting rug hooking, and need all the tips I can get. This was a really good one. Thanks again❤️
Thank you, great technique, I will use this.
You make it look sooooo easy. Thanks much!!
helpful! love your house!
Thanks, this explains why some of my finished rugs don’t look straight!
But what does "in the grain" mean? I wish you had held the canvas with the Sharpie marks really close to the camera so we could see.
This is linen. Canvas is not, to my knowledge, a rug foundation, so that may be part of the confusion as canvas is generally not woven with relatively open holes the way rug hooking linen, rug warp, and monks cloth are.
The Sharpie is in a single row of holes. The linen is loosely woven in a grid of warp and weft, forming a particular number of holes per square inch depending on type. For example, fine linen has more holes per square inch than primitive linen, fine linen being meant for smaller cut wool or finer yarn/fiber. When you go to put a straight line on it, be it linen or any other rug foundation, you put the Sharpie tip into a hole at the beginning point and then drag it in a line straight down the "grain" or the row of holes in the weave that all line up between those two particular threads in the weave. If you go out of that row of holes, or out of the "ditch" as some people call it, your line will not be straight. You are literally following the weave of the foundation.
