Ragged Life Rug Hook

Features and Benefits:

A perfectly shaped hook. This is the most important feature of our Ragged Life Rug Hook. Our brass hook is deep enough to securely hold thick and fine fabrics, and angled just enough to make releasing the fabric easy once youre through the hessian. This shape hook works well for fabrics such as blanket yarn, jersey, cotton, fleece, nylon and more. It widens the hole as you punch through the hessian, so that the hook doesnt get caught on the other strands. Neat huh!

The neck of the hook is the perfect size to use with our Ragged Life hessian. It stretches the hessian as you push through from the front to the back, so that the hook doesnt get caught on neighbouring strands. This means youll be whizzing along in no time.

A quality brass hook, which is sturdy, yet smooth. The smoothness of the brass means the hook glides through the hessian easily and doesnt catch and snag on the fabric strips. This keeps both your hessian and fabric in tip top condition. Brass is not only beautiful, but also robust.

A birch wood handle with a super smooth finish. These handles feel lovely on the hand. Its the same quality wood used in our Rag Rug Spring Tool.

Our rug hook features a short neck, which means you dont have to put as much through the hessian, giving you more control.

What is rag rugging?

Rag rugging is an old British craft where people use hessian sacking and old clothing and fabric to make cosy rugs for the floor. It was incredibly widespread during Victorian times when lower income families embraced rag rugging as a way to make the most out of everything they had. They took the clothing that was no longer fit for purpose and worked their magic to make wonderful rugs for the cold, stone floors.
