Finished product

It’s taken me six years and many hours of hard work, but I have finally finished making my hooked rug. It nearly got destroyed last year at the three-quarters-finished stage thanks to a little mouse who found it whilst I was having a break from working on it and decided to chew big holes in it. Fortunately, the damage was repairable – I had some spare canvas with which to patch the holes and then had to re-do those areas. I’m really pleased with the end result, especially as the patches are barely noticeable even on the underside of the rug.
