Do you need a beginer rug hook because you are just starting out? This primitive Joan Moshimer hook is a great way to begin your journey into primitive rug hooking. Nice small maple handle that fits easily in your hand.
I, personally, used a hook like this one when I first learned to hook and created quite a few rugs with it.
This will help you without investing a large sum of money- to try it out and fall in love with this craft.
 
Other rug hooks are still available in the shop but there is a very limited supply. Those Irish Hooks will no longer be restocked due to the maker retiring and his son taking on the business part time.
If you want a hook to try out this glorious craft-  this is a great option for you.
Give it a try and let me know how it goes.
