Episode 016 Hooked Rug Steaming
Steaming makes all the difference in finishing. This is especially true for your hooked rugs. Don’t skip this important step. In fact, you may want to do it more than once. I steam before I start the rug finishing and then give another light steam when the finish edge is complete. These rug finishing tips help ensure a smooth, professional-looking edge every time.
Do you steam your hooked rugs?
