Hooking, internationally

TIGHR - The International Guild of Handhooking Rugmakers - began in 1994 in London, England, with a group of international friends who decided to establish a world wide group involved in rugmaking.

 Meetings have been held in Nova Scotia, Canada 1997; Rhode Island, United States 2000; Toronto, Canada 2003; Tenby, Wales 2006; Louisville, Kentucky, United States, 2009; and Strathalbyn, South  Australia 2012 - next up is Victoria, Canada in October 2015.

 The website has links that you might wish to explore (this blog is one of them!).
