It only took me nine months to finish


My first finished rug hook. I bought this kit about nine months ago and went all crazy to start it and then finishing it became a chore. I wanted to bring some handmade gifts to Norway so this is going overseas in a month to give to my relative Linda who is letting us stay in her house

That did turn out lovely, and what a nice thought to bring handmade gifts with you :)

Thanks ladies. It isn't that hard, just takes a lot of time and I try to do it while we watch TV at night usually with a couple of kitties sitting on me and trying to play with my wool strips.

I had a typo, midway was supposed to be norway, I guess you figured that out!

My dad's cousin Linda will be the recipient, she stayed in our house when they were here last year and commented that she liked one I had

It IS beautiful -- what a wonderful choice for a gift!

Congrats on your perseverence - I know your kitties would like you to start another one .....
