Learn to Make a Rag Rug - MECollab Crafts

KFL is teaming up with other libraries to offer a series of scrap craft programs. On Thursday, August 21 at 12:30, learn to make a rag rug for use underfoot or as decoration.

In this class we'll teach you how to use extra fibers to make a rug. We'll go over a variety of techniques and tools, but concentrate on utilizing what extra fiber you can forage, and easy to find tools and backing. Leave with inspiration from modern rug designers, knowledge of traditional techniques and the beginnings of a locker-hooked rug.

This class is being taught by librarians from Curtis Memorial Library. There are two ways to participate. Join us in person at KFL for a viewing party. We’ll have all the materials that you’ll need to complete the project and we’ll enjoy some light refreshments and craft together. Register here for in-person crafting.

You can also join from home. Visit the Curtis Memorial Library website to register for the Zoom link and participate from home.

MORE INFORMATION

Welcome to our MECollab craft class series. You can expect to see a craft class each month at your local library. Each of these craft classes has been designed to use minimal purchased tools, many of which can be borrowed for your local library. These craft classes will also try to provide you with options to purchase ecologically responsible craft materials or provide you ways in which you can acquire your consumable materials for free.
