Hooked Hot Pad

At the end of any rug hooking project, "hookers" are always left with  lots of leftover strands of cut wool.  In my case, all of these strands ended up in a disorderly mess which I was determined to conquer.  I've heard many hookers refer to projects for using up their leftovers as "hit and miss" - but if you're looking for a well-balanced outcome in your piece, I don't thing "hit and miss" is an accurate definition.   I was happy with the balance in colour and texture in this hooked hot pad - especially like the rich "hits" of purples throughout.
