September/October 2013

Prepare for fall, Halloween, and the cooler weather with this issue of Rug Hooking. Check out an eerie witch and her "foil;" admire a turkey that defies traditional fall color schemes, and get started on your own festive project with the exclusive Autumn Friends pattern. You can even take a tour through all the emotional sensations created by artists experimenting with mood, each rug dedicated to exploring one color or value in particular. There is no better way to get excited for the season than learning more about rug hooking and getting great pattern ideas!
