  • Rug Hooking with yarn tutorial for beginners. What materials do you need? Which rug hooking hooks and what type of yarn is best for creating your yarn hooked rugs. I will go over techniques tips and tricks.
    For Supplies, Tools, Patterns, Beginner Kits, Workshops be sure to check my shop: www.ribboncand...
    Here are some affiliate links to things I'm using in this video:
    RUG HOOKING
    amzn.to/2DRrnKt (basic rug hook for primitive strips - meaning #5-#8 - anything but tiny)
    amzn.to/30fBRut (rug hook with a smaller head for hooking smaller strips and thin yarn)
    amzn.to/32kUPTb (linen backing from Dorr Mill)
    amzn.to/2WpR2jP (monk's cloth backing)
    amzn.to/3fEUTRu (good simple, sturdy solid yarn that's not expensive but great)
    PUNCH NEEDLE
    I use just these two punch needle - the fine for my thinner yarns and strips, and the larger for my thicker yarns and wider strips. There are a LOT of needles but I find I need one regular (big eye) and one fine (small eye) and these two make the same 1/4" pile (height of loop). Together these two make an even surface, and you're able to use pretty much any thickness of yarn between them.
    amzn.to/32uK2pH (Punch Needle #13 fine - the Mini with Heels - this will do your thin #3 wool strips AND thin yarns like the sock yarns I often use)
    amzn.to/2DLcp8x (this is the larger-eyed punch needle that's good for thicker yarn, like bulky, and wider strips)

    Hi, I just watched yours fabulous video because, lucky for me, yesterday I bought some vintage pre-cut wool, in those paper tubes and there was a well-loved hook (1.49!) included. Soooo as I have been alone in Seattle since the lockdown (my job dissolved with the event party company), I have been surfing through a myriad of crafts - it would probably get me sent to Vienna for serious observation if anyone knew all of the new crafting powers I have obtained. It has saved me, literally. And most importantly, today I found you. And your lovely, sometimes sweaty, way of teaching has not only helped me try this new craft with excitement but you and your humanity, knowledge, cheerfulness, smarts and wit has helped me feel better about my life. More hopeful. THANK YOU 🙏 Christina

    I've always hooked with yarn (about 12 years now) and find that 'packing' is good with yarn, but 'bad' with wool strip. Many yarns are smoother and packing helps them stay in the backing. Also, I have found that though I tend to want a 'low' pile, that if I go for a higher pile, and pack it dense enough, the rug is very stable, cushy and looks great.

    • @RibbonCandyHooking

    @SirenaSpades 3 года назад +1

    I love your Buttons design, great colors. I'm having a struggle with it having to be wool yarn, and need a cheaper way to get started to make sure I like it first. Being in Maine and a remote area (and a brand new beginner) not only are there no stores that sell wool yarn, it's difficult knowing if you even like the hobby yet. Hobby Lobby sells exactly two types and colors I believe, Lyons cream and a khaki color. Anyway, to order online it would be a big investment to order full skeins without knowing if you like it yet. I have lots of cheap acrylics - LOTS! - from looming but wool is just not easily available. I've been binge watching your videos since last night!

    • @RibbonCandyHooking
      @RibbonCandyHooking  3 года назад +1

      Definitely use acrylics. Grab those big multi color cakes and separate the colors. Sometimes one cake has 10 or more distinct colors and it's great to work with

      Not to worry. Use your synthetic. I mix both together, and did early pieces with almost entirely synthetics. Works fine, and I did not have any bleeding when pressing. But it does sort of pill in a foot rug… blurring the pattern. Not an issue for art pieces on the wall. Besides which, I can buy left overs readily found in thrift stores. But I watch for wall blends a d pure wools , which I choose first. I have several friends who watch out for me when shopping thrift stores, so I have quite a large collection now…. Ow I need storage ideas!

      You can order yarn online from knit picks for 100% wool for very reasonable prices. Their yarn is called Wool of the Andes and is a workhorse yarn. And lots of solid colors. Plus if your in Maine there is a Canadian yarn called Briggs and Little that is very affordable. There is a distributor in Maine!

    Brand new here and love your RUclips channel! I've been binge watching. I'm just wondering where you get your super bulky yarn from as well as where I could find the "wool sheets" that you cut into strips undyed.. I'd like to be able to to dye my own but haven't had any luck sourcing out what your bulky yarn looks like or the wool sheets (undyed) that I can dye and cut. Thank you so much!

    Wonderful video! What size hook are you using for most of your projects? I spin my own yarn and have from lace to super bulky that I want to use... I especially want to hook medium & bulky and some lock spun that's probably super-bulky in some places.

    • @RibbonCandyHooking
      @RibbonCandyHooking  4 года назад +1

      I always use a larger sized hook. A lot of the sites are selling them in 2 sizes. It so hard because they're not standardized on every site, but I always use a large one even with yarn. I tried some of my teeny tiny hooks with sock yarn hooking and found it was still easier to use a larger headed hook. I have actually yet to find a use for my really tiny hooks. I like trying new ones at the local rug hooking shop... not open now... but most shops let you try a hook before you buy.

    Hi Deanne
    Thank you so much for your videos.
    I'm a beginner and I'm finding it difficult not to pull out the previous 'loop', I also have difficulty 'catching' the whole fibre and not splitting it when I catch it, and removing the hook from the yarn once I've pulled it through - is this just a beginner-thing that will resolve or am I doing something very wrong? I haven't yet obtained a frame so perhaps some of the awkwardness could be explained by this?

    Hi, please can you tell me if I need to wash the backing material, before I use it? Here in the UK I can't seem to get my hands on rug warp, linen is a bit too expensive for me. However I was reading up on monks cloth which I can get, and it says that it shrinks. When you block the final product with steam will the backing not shrink? Finally, if I'm making a rug, how do I clean it if I can't throw it on the washing machine. Thank you, Stella

    Is this a fair question? You and many "hookers" where do you find the material that you use in the videos? JoAnna's,HobbyLobby,Walmart at least in my "neck of woods" rural Missouri , don't carry in their stores. So then the material you have to purchase from each talented teacher?

    • @RibbonCandyHooking
      @RibbonCandyHooking  4 года назад

      That's a very fair question. It can be hard. First, if you're on facebook, check facebook marketplace. You put in your location and it'll show you if anyone near you is selling a lot of supplies. I've found many lots this way - people sadly pass away or give up hooking and will sell a bundle of wool for an excellent price. There aren't a lot of brick and morter shops anymore. I'm lucky to have one an hour and a half away - still an hour and a half! I order a lot online on etsy and through various rug hooking shops like Searsport, Cushing Dorr, and particularly smaller shops to help the littler businesses out. Shipping flat rate is ok. I have a group facebook page called Rug Hooking & Rug Braiding of New England. It sounds regional but there's people even from Canada in the group. People post supplies that are often a bargain on there, and you're very welcome to ask questions there too. It's a very friendly group. I sell supplies in posts there sometimes and do giveways too. I'm putting the July one together now. If you have Goodwill or Savers or thrift shops there - consignment shops - you can grab wool there too. You'll need to cut it along the seams, so I find longer skirts and pants can give more material than a heay blazer sometimes. I hope this helps. I pull from all over the place but it can be hard, so I'm always searching! x
