Doing a Happy Dance ~

Askew is finally finished . . . at least the hooking part.  I had my doubts it would ever be done.  It is 29" x 45" ~ really big for me.  Not my largest, but close.  This was a "worm buster" project.  Except for "darks", which I ran low on and had to cut, it was hooked entirely with already cut worms or narrow pieces of wool.  It made a dent in the worms, but by no means have I run out.  As any hooker will tell you, they multiply while we sleep.

Hopefully now I will have time to work on my camp rug 😁

Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs 😊

I think it is a lovely rug and you did an awesome job. It would look great in any room in the house and with any style décor.

Absolutely fantastic GT! Those colors are amazing - and such a perfect reflection of your always incredible color palettes. Everything plays so well together. When you're through binding Askew, I'll send you the Beast. :-( ~et~

Lauren, what can I say? Askew looks stunning. I love it. I agree with Saundra, it fits any decor. Nothing jarring about this rug. To me, it has a feel of confidence. It's pleasing to the eyes and calming to look at. Did I say, I love it?

Congratulations of getting it finished. Is this one for your house? I hope so.
Hugs,
Julia

It looks great, and nice that the worms bins have less in them than when you started. The size is a bit larger than the desk I' sitting at. That's a lot of hooking to do.
WooHoo! and Happy Dance are definitely in order!
