Locker Hooking - the Basics
Locker hooking is a fairly simple craft with very satisfying
results. Locker hooked fabric can be used to make rugs, mats,
bags and wall hangings. You can also use the technique to
embellish open weave hats, loose knit sweaters and more.
Fibres, fabric strips or novelty yarns are looped through
the canvas with a hook (shown in green) and secured in place
with a length of string or yarn (shown in red).
The samples below (from top) show locker hooking
created from Dyed Wool tops, strips of fabric and doubled-up
novelty yarns.
