More hooking tools
I found these when rummaging through bags and boxes - tools I've had for years but never used (yet)! Both are for use with yarn, I believe, and need the hessian or other base material to be securely stretched on a frame.

ReplyDeleteThese tools look very interesting Margaret.
ReplyDeleteI have one similar to the blue metal tool; it is wooden and called a speed shuttle.
I also have a Danella Carpet Needle; a large metal tool with a winding handle.
However I've used neither of these tools!
