How to Rug Hook Step by Step:
1. After stretching the backing on a hoop or frame, push the hook through the backing.
-----Put the hook in where it makes sense — do NOT count threads!

2. Scoop up the wool from underneath.
-----Move the hook, not the wool. Wrapping the wool onto the hook will cause twists.

3. Pull the wool to the surface and adjust the height of the loop.
-----Pull it up as high as it is wide.

4. Repeat a million times.
-----Concentrate on pulling the loops up high enough and spreading them apart. Avoid overcrowding.
