Latch Hook Rugs wake up that creative spirit

Latch hook rugs are not to be confused with hooked rugs, and anyone who hand hooks rugs will be able to tell you that. These wool area rugs are much different in the way that they are made and a different type tool is used in the process. Latch hook rugs are made with a small tool with a wooden handle, which has a hook with a latch. You may have seen them. Short pieces of wool are pulled through the canvas and tied to make the tufts. Different patterns can be woven into the design making nautical rugs, or many different kinds of wool area rugs from your own special design.
