A latch hook rug kit is a great way to begin rug making -- But what items do you need?

A latch hook rug kit is the perfect way to get started in this exciting and satisfying rug making hobby, yet still produce a top quality, relatively cheap rug. A latch hook rug kit should contain a canvas with the design printed onto it, sufficient wool or acrylic yarn to finish the project, full rug making instructions and most important of all, a latch hook.

A latch hook rug kit is the perfect gift for someone interested in rug making, so rather than buy a commercial kit why not assemble your own, and make your gift even more special. The items you will need for this kit are a suitable pattern, enough wool or acrylic yarn to complete the project (a good pattern should tell you how much yarn you will need), a latch hook, binding tape, scissors and a polyester or cotton canvas large enough for your selected pattern. To complete your kit a latch hook frame, magnifier and instruction book should be added. Place all of these items into an attractive gift box or basket to complete this truly unique gift.

Whichever type of latch hook rug kit you choose, remember there is a huge resource of rug making and rug weaving information, as well as rug hooking patterns and rug hooking supplies available, at one of the many online specialist merchants.
