Нукинг – одна из самых интересных техник вязания. В ней используют приемы вязания спицами и крючком. Эта особенность и определяет название рукоделия – knooking (с английского «крючок» (hook) и «вязание на спицах» (knit)). Кроме этого, в работе применяется тунисская техника. В этой статье мы рассмотрим пошагово, как выполняется нукинг

Bud Vase Treasure Keeper So many steps go into making a rug. First, there's that dreamy beginning, when ideas swirl around in your head of what to design or what pattern to buy. Then there is the color planning and wool choices. What wool will you use... as-is, over-dyed, textures or marbleized etc. As you hook, your motifs and background come to life. You make changes and adjustments along the way. Finally you are finished with the hooking and have a beautiful rug, almost.... The hooking is complete, however the rug isn't finished....yet! Now you get to choose how to bind the edges. There are so many choices! How you use the piece may narrow your choices. Will it be used on the floor, the wall, a table top or chair. As an ornament, purse, tea cozy or pillow. Crocheted Edges Will you use cording to wrap your selvage over, or will the selvage be rolled and take the place of cording. Do you like to wrap the edge with wool strips or yarn. Will you use wool strips or yarn to crochet the edge (my personal favorite)? There's always the method of sewing on rug binding tape or using wool fabric as your binding material. Maybe you want to use wood frames to mount your piece like a picture? There are many other creative ways to bind your rug, maybe you will want to experiment with any one of these on your next piece. Heart-Felt Mouse Framed Wrapping with Yarn Garden Hideaway, crocheted with yarn Wool strip and yarn whipstitch finish Over the years, I have found it really is worth the effort and time to be a perfectionist on this one subject, and to make the edge be a quality finish that reflects the beauty of your overall piece! So, how will you choose to finish your next hooked rug?

Hooking with roving Roving is the clean and combed wool from a fiber-bearing animal. It is usually a long fluffy “rope” that is several inches in diameter. I often use wool roving that comes from the fleece of a Corriedale sheep. It has a creamy light vanilla color and soft spongy texture that is easy to hook, especially for those who have never used roving before. However, bear in mind that various sheep fleeces will produce different textures of roving, so have fun and try some other types too! · Roving comes in a long, loose “rope”. Grasp it in your hands and pull off a piece of about 18” in length. The ends will look wispy. Hold the piece by the wispy end in your two hands and gently pull it apart lengthwise. It will separate into two smaller sections. (see picture) · Grasp this smaller half piece of roving in both hands, with your hands about 6 inches apart. Gently pull with your two hands so that you can feel the fibers just begin to pull apart but do not separate the fiber. Reposition your hands farther down the roving and repeat. This will gently open up the fibers so the roving will be a little fluffier and easier to hook (if you are a spinner, you will recognize this procedure as “pre-drafting.”) “The pre-drafted” piece will be about the diameter of a Sharpie marker. You can also use strips of roving about the diameter of a pencil. The size of your hooked loops will depend upon the diameter of your roving strip. Thus, thinner strips will yield smaller, finer loops and thicker strips will yield larger, bulkier loops. If you accidentally pull the roving apart while you are pre-drafting it, just set aside the smaller piece and hook with it later. · Now you are ready to hook with roving! Pulling the roving apart Hooking with roving is done in much the same way as if you were to hook with a wide cut fabric strip. · You must always use a primitive hook so you are less likely to split the fibers when pulling up your loops. I like to use my 8mm Hartman Hook. · Always bring your ends to the top of your work and trim even. · When you end your roving strip, begin a new piece in the same opening, just as you would do for a fabric strip. · Each time you pull up a loop of roving, roll your hook toward the previous loop. This will help keep you from pulling out the previous loop. · Space your loops at least 2 to 3 threads apart. Don’t worry if the loops are not perfectly even. Don’t pack your loops. · Outline your design and then fill it in. · For best results, pull up your roving loops a little higher than the rest of your hooking. Hooking with mohair roving If you are combining roving with your regular hooking, it is best to hook all appropriate areas with the wool strips first. Hook your strips just outside the shape you want to fill with roving, leaving an opening for the roving. Once you are finished, steam your rug, and then hook your roving last. You want to prevent exposure from the prickle strips of your rug hooking frame, which would tear against the roving and accidentally pull it out. You also want to keep the roving-hooked area away from heat and steam as this can cause felting and matting of the roving. Dyed sheep curls were used for the mermaid's hair Hooking with sheep’s curls or locks Sheep curls and locks make a wonderful embellishment to your rug hooking! They are also easy to hook. They are fine enough to pull up in between hooked rows of wool strips or roving. Using a primitive hook gives the best results. Pull up one end of the sheep’s curl so that the end hangs out about ¾” to 1 inch high. Now hook a loop but pull it up so it forms a large high loop and do not pull out the end. Proceed in this same manner until you get to the end of the curl, then pull up the other end so that it hangs out about ¾” to 1 inch. Continue with another sheep’s curl, pulling up the end in the same opening where the previous curl ended. Usually “less is more” in this situation since it doesn’t take a lot of individual locks to make a dense area of lush curls. When finishing your piece, take particular care not to steam or press over areas embellished with the curls. Do you need ideas or suggestions for using sheep curls? Think of witch’s hair, wooly sheep, slender flower tendrils, feathers, and Santa’s beards! (c) 2010 Kris Miller/Spruce Ridge Studios LLC. All rights reserved.

I have stayed home from my downtown studio for over a week. Of course I have worked on my online courses, email, and I have hooked. I have made six small landscapes each 8 inches by 8 inches.

A week ago I spent 3 days with these very talented ladies in Lancaster, PA., sharing new techniques and ideas. Makes my job so easy when everyone is excited and so receptive to trying new things. We started with a sampler, then moved on to using the techniques learned in their new pieces. Of course show and tell was an amazing treat. I also have photos of my talented and gracious hostess, Cindy Irwin's work and INCREDIBLE studio/ dye kitchen. I am green! Thanks for a great time!
