Rug hooking, in its simplest terms, is pulling up thin strips of wool through backing material using a tool that resembles a modified crochet needle; in its most complex terms, it is the use of imagination to master color, design, and depth.Celebration IX brings the artistry of its jury-selected hooked rugs to you in a special way. For this edition, close-up photos accompany the full view of these extraordinary works. Feast your eyes on florals, portraits, pictorials, and more.Stories accompany the photographs, describing how the designs were developed, dyed, and hooked, offering a deeper appreciation for the effort that went into creating these magnificent works of art.
