Hi Deanne, Im just letting you know you ladies bring so much sunshine in my day. Rug hooking was introduced to me 3 weeks ago and I love it,but I can not do it the way you do. Unfortunately I have bad eyesight so I have to punch hook. I am doing very well which surprisesd me (lol). My question to you is have you ever punched or has it only hooking. I was wondering if you could help me with this . Thank you inadvance Linda

We are so happy you are enjoying rug hooking, Deanne hasn’t made a punched rug before. There are some magnifying glasses that have clips on the end, if you get one of those you could add it to your frame to help you see better when you are making your rugs.
