Luckily, Jack has never damaged shoes. He prefers the shoe laces, but leaves the shoes alone. When he gets excited, nothing works like a tennis shoe. I think he is enjoying the rug shifting on the floor. When the rug is finished, it will have a rubber mat below it to hold it in place. This is mainly for safety, but I will need it to keep the rug from being plowed into the wall.
This was taken when I had the rug downstairs to mark the holidays (gaps in the hooking). I am finally done with that, but I still need to get the gaps hooked. The last few weeks were lost in holiday (Christmas and New Year) activities and my husband being home. For the last several days I have been getting my project for Teachers' Workshop finished. My report is due soon even though the class isn't until March. Here's what Jackson thinks about it:

Hi Cindi, what's the difference in rug warp and say primitive linen. That's what I usually hook on but it's so darned expensive. I use an 8, 8.5 and 9 cut. I am also experimenting with monks cloth. It's not too bad and Alot cheaper than linen. And where do you get to rug warp? Dorr?
Thanks for the help.

p.s. I got a new Yorkie puppy that was 8 weeks old Nov 15th so all my rugs are up and off the floor for now until I am sure he is 100% potty trained!!
Cindi,
No matter how many times I try, I just can't get your video of Jack to go much past the first few seconds. Oh, well, having had pretty big goofy puppies around for years, I can imagine what a fun time he is giving you.
What I have seen of your rug as you have hooked so far is gorgeous. Luckily I can never do one that big. I can no longer pick it up to work on it and the little hamster-legged dogs I own now aren't much help.
You still are one of the best on-line instructors I have ever studied under.
