The Silk Lotus Flower
Rug hooking is typically done using wool, but many have explored the craft with dyed nylon tights. This project, Dawn Liu-Smyth explores and enhances a simple flower using Sari silk ribbon and raffia. The end result is nothing short of mesmerizing.

Hooking a Colourful Basket Topper
Sometimes the beauty of a craft is in the materials used rather than intricate design details. Hooking a basket-topper with colourful sari silk ribbon and textured yarn is a quick project that packs a beautiful punch! It can be hooked and put together in only a couple of days for that kick of instant gratification.
