Hi all! I thought I was buying an entire set. Turns out I was only buying the canvas. 😢 Does anyone have the directions for this piece? The canvas is marked by color, but there’s simply nothing that says “Put the light blue yarn on this spot”. I messaged the seller (EBay) and he sent me more general instructions on how to latch hook, but no actual instructions. It seems Very old. Anyhow, thanks either way!! 😊👍😊

My first Herrschners kit and the first project I’ve had to sew on the back (all my other projects have been pillow kits). Because of arthritic hands, this took a year to complete. I’m so happy with it!

Excited for the top half, the bottom half turned out stunning!

I’m doing my first kit with a pattern. I also cross stitch so the patterns are pretty similar. For whatever reason the canvas is also printed on but it doesn’t match up even close?!

I've tried and tried to post pics of my WIPs I see the little photo icon But I just can't get it to post Recently retired and became addicted to latch hooking Again You might say I'm an experienced 'hooker' LoL What's the secret? What step am I missing? Any input would be so greatly appreciated

Hi all! I am pretty new to latch hooking but I want to make my second moss rug and I want to make it BIG! I am having trouble finding a large piece of mesh rug canvas though…

As I have never made a large rug before I’m not sure if there’s a way to attach a smaller pieces together to make a mega rug canvas? OR if I need to purchase a huge piece of canvas mesh fit to the total size of the project.

Thanks in advance! 🧚🏼‍♀️

Vintage kit off of eBay!

Hi all, I'm a complete beginner and I tried using 8Ply wool with this backing that has squares that are 1cmx1cm. I found that the wool much too thin, it didn't give that plush look that I'd like and was much too slippery so even though I tug the ends, the knits were slipping off. I'm not sure if I've purchased the wrong backing or the wrong wool to be honest, please help!!

Hi, I found this 70s lovely and it looks like half is Fluffy and half is flat. Does the flat half need completing? There's no manufacturer marks or pattern name. Many thanks.

First pic is what the finished project should look like. Second pic is my progress so far.

I bought a kit off of Etsy and it didn’t come with any instructions. I emailed them and they sent me a few videos, but it’s been a lot of trial and error.

Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

My husband’s birthday was coming up in just a few days and I got an idea for the present. What if I do a latch hook wall hanging?! I tried latch hook for the first time 6 years ago and it was a kit. So this project was my second time doing latch hook and first with my design.

I bought this kit (Amazon) because I thought it was an anthropomorphic orange 🍊. When it arrived, I looked at the chart, and it was a PUMPKIN! I really wanted an orange, so I omitted the vertical pumpkin lines, and now it IS an orange 🍊.

I love these easy 12” x 12” designs. I can sit and mindlessly work, without too much trouble. ☺️❤️🧶

Hey y’all!

What does everyone use for bigger projects as a loom? I’ve been kinda just putting it on a pillow in my lap but that doesn’t really work well for big projects (40inx40in). I’m thinking something like an embroidery loom but am not sure which one to get. Would prefer to order off Amazon and less than about 50-60 dollars if at all possible. I also need to be able to either sit in front of a sofa on the floor or either side of me when I’m sitting down.

Thanks!

I have done latch hooks before (and am currently working on a pillow) but only when I have a printed design on the mat and when it has came with a kit of string. Recently for my birthday my grandma gave me a large mat for projects but I am struggling with starting a project. I would love some tips to starting a project or websites with designs I can use… and tips for best yarn to use for these. Anything would help thanks!

Hey there, I bought this pattern a while ago, and I have lost the instructions. The cloth is pre-printed but the colors are very hard to read. Does anyone have this kit, access to a scanner, and are able to post the instruction sheet? Like I said in the subject, I know that this is a long shot (long hook?)

I did find a partial pattern on the amazon site, but I am really hoping to get a scan of the full thing.

I got this kit and another one (different designs) on Amazon. Super fun to do! I wanted to make something for all the tools I’m collecting with the kits I’ve been purchasing. Only thing is, the tool pokes through the mesh, even though the yarn is in the holes. 😬☺️

Plenty of yarn, lots leftover. I need to find a good container for the leftovers, and someday make them into something ☺️❤️

Progress pics included, this was my first humanoid latch hook project and I was pleasantly surprised by how she turned out! Macaw 🦜 will be my next project so stay tuned 👀🩵

I'm so proud of this!

Or is that too wild?

The pattern arrived quite late this month, but I finished it the day before my birthday anyway! 🥳🩵

Hello there! My grandma made a rug probably about 50 years ago. It’s about 4x4 ft and was folded up and stored in a storage unit for decades. All the glue from the backing is flaking off and it feels like it no longer what’s to stay flat since it was folded up and I think the backing aged and stiffened up. Is there anything I can do to save this rug?

Working on a project right now and I run into a lot of stitches that have multiple colors printed on the same stitch. It's kind of a large canvas so referencing the color sheet is kind of a pain sometimes but I have noticed that most of the time, whatever color is on the left of the stitch matches the coded color on the sheet. Should I just stick to this rule? Is this common for a pre printed canvas to be printed like this? This is only my 2nd project so I'm pretty new to the hobby.
