Rug hooking with Non traditional yarn weights...sock yarn, DK, mohair

In this video I'm working on one of my girl detective images and I'm filling it in with non traditional yarns like Lacey mohair and cotton decay. I'll show you how I handle some of these fibers so that they hook faster and better.

So glad I found you. I started hooking 7 years ago but gave up becasue I could never do it evenly. MY teacher kept telling me that I needed to. Watching you I think I have hope and should try again.

UGH those teachers! Let it rip - and share your work! We LOVE the variety and bohemian abandon of just working the loops like playing a musical instrument - let it be just the way you feel like it! xxx

How interesting Deana. Thank you!

[@beloved4evr]

Great Ideas! I have a suitcase full of DK weight yarn.... going to try this soon!

Love the pattern. I hope you show the result when you finish. (Not sure why the videos are vertical instead of horizontal. Feels a bit claustrophobic. Other than that, you make it all look so easy)

Fun, thank you. Which floor frame are you using?

[@ReadyWillnnabel]

Is this on rug warp? It has a tighter weave doesn't it?

I find yarn difficult to hook with, am I doing something wrong.
