Hookers and Strippers

Here's a little gadget I got at my favorite junk store some time back.  

It's a little wool stripper. 

It only cuts one thin strip at a time.

I think you could clamp it onto a counter or table edge 

but there were no clamps included.

I've always loved old wool hooked rugs, 

with their beautiful muted colors and primitive designs.

 

I'm not as adventurous as Cathy at Acorn Hollow.  

Here's a beautiful large rug she recently finished.

There was also a super cool covered ottoman but I couldn't find it again.

I think I'd like to try something small little pins.  

Maybe heart, star, or flower shaped or maybe just a circle.

Getting some inspiration from a couple talented hookers on Etsy.....

Wool hooked circle ornaments by Primitives for sale.

But is little chick is pretty darn cute.  Also by Primitives for Sale.

Be inspired to start hooking or go shoppin'!

Happy Vintage Friday, on Saturday.
