CAX to- not have to wear, but for which you want an especially attractive, fragile looking rug. It is difficult to estimate how much material you will need for a rug because weaves differ. Dry material, weighing about 4 pounds will give a rug approximately 20x40 inches. A rug 40x60 inches will require around 10 pounds. Back and Frame Hooked Rug For backing the rug youll need burlap, rug canvas, monks cloth or some other fabric of similar weave. Lay the backing flat on the table and sketch the design on it. You may purchase or make the wooden frame, which should be a good grade seasoned wood. If you want to finish the edges of the rug as you hook the design, turn back edges of the foundation about 3 inches and press onto the right side with a heavy iron. Hook through the double thickness as you work and youll avoid hemming or facing. Strips of material are cut about Vi inch wide, but woolens may be slightly more narrow. The strips of fabric are held under the rug foundation between thumb and forefinger of left hand, and the right sTTA IS love-sea- rugs add , , tmj olh.

Mabel Use Good Scatter Rugs In Place of Skimpy Large Ones Does your hallway with its stairs stand close scrutiny, or could it be more of a decorative asset? Those nice oblong rugs are excellent covering for long hallways, much better than the very narrow, skimpy rugs which are all too frequently tacked in the hall. In front of the stairway, use one of the half moon shaped rugs to give character. All rugs should be anchored to d the floor with pads or linings. Another trick is to use rubber jar rings on the corners of these small rugs. This anchoring of the rugs is especially important in places like halls and stairways where you anticipate traffic. A good arrangement in the bedroom is to have the scatter rugs on either side of the bed, the length of the rugs matching the length of the bed. Continue the rugs to bathroom entrance. In long, narrow living rooms, scatter rugs help facilitate furniture groupings. If you have a desk and bookcase arrangement in one corner or on one side, use one large or several matching rugs for this unit. If you have a musical corner, use several matching rugs for this group. Still another group, around mantel or fireplace can be carpeted with one or two scatter rugs in still another pattern or style. Playrooms and nurseries are ideal places for scatter rugs because they can be used for play groupings, and then rolled up quickly if the whole room floor is needed for more rugged activities. non-ski- 2) o G Y MtHUTZ 3fAWM&l imaginative decor to borne. holds the hook which Is slipped down through the meshes of fabric to catch the strip and bring it to the surface to a height inch.
