Hooked Rugs

The "Nantucket rug" is done in toned-down colors to mimic scrimshaw.

Carolyn Watt is "hooked" on rugs! She crafts one-of-a-kind hooked rugs that either tell stories or focus on historic architectural buildings and homes. Watt has a number of rugs displayed in her country home, either on walls for decoration or on wood floors to add interest and be functional. She demonstrates how to make a hooked rug, talks about proper ways to hang a rug and discusses the care of hooked rugs so they will last for many generations.
