Any #rug hooking people out there? I want to make my first ever hooked rug -- a small one using #fabric strips. I bought a rug hook (2mmx1.25). Is this the right tool, and what washable backing stuff should I use? Should I get Monk's #cloth, or some sort of #canvas? The intent is for a small bathroom rug that I can sometimes wash (maybe by hand).

Prepping for the next (scariest) bit of this piece. It involves colour blending with a bunch of different shades of yarn.

For Folks interested in my "process", most of it is eyeballing measurements and using a Sharpie to sketch things out directly on the work surface.I just finished dividing the sky up into segments/gradients to (hopefully) keep my colour blending in track.

To give an idea of scale, this piece is 3 feet wide from border to border.
