Description
Introducing the Periwinkle Laine Rug Hooking Cutter , a tool designed with the user in mind. It has been built to streamline the process of cutting wool into precise strips of uniform widths.
The Introductory Offer includes one (1) cutter body and two (2) drop in cutter cartridges; a number 5 and a number 6.
A number 5 cut, which is 5/32nds of an inch wide, is often considered a versatile choice. It strikes a balance between fine detail and speed of progress. When hooked in a #5 cut, the fabric strips are narrow enough to capture moderate details, making it suitable for elements with defined shapes like small objects or intricate patterns. On the other hand, a number 6 cut, measuring 6/32nds of an inch, provides a wider strip compared to the #5 cut. This width offers a more primitive, folk-inspired look to the rug. #6 cut strips are ideal for hookers aiming for a rustic appearance or emphasizing a more simplistic, bold aesthetic in their designs. While it may lack the intricate detail achievable with smaller cuts, the #6 cut allows for a faster hooking process, making it a suitable choice for larger areas or backgrounds where elaborate detailing is unnecessary.
Periwinkle Laine’s decision to launch rug hooking cutters in the choice of number 5 and number 6 cuts reflects a thoughtful approach to meet the diverse needs of the rug hooking community. These cut sizes strike balance between detail, efficiency, and artistic freedom, making them a practical addition to any rug hooking toolkit.
