An UNUSUAL GRENFELL RUG

STRAIGHT LINES HOOKED in the MOST BEAUTIFUL WAY

What a treat to see this old incredible amazing and unusual GRENFELL mat hooked with silk stockings .
It is  in almost perfect condition except for the outside edge . . .

My friends mother had worked with Grenfell in Newfoundland and she had this rug at home and brought it into class yesterday to see what we thought about it!

THANK YOU Meta for sharing this  magnificent masterpiece with us!
The SIMPLICITY of design and the amazing COMPOSITION is thrilling to see!

  1. That is beautiful. It looks more like a tapestry rather than a hooked mat.
