The tradition of "hooking" rugs originated in New England, starting as a creative pastime for farmers during the long, cold winter nights of the Northeast in the early 1800s. These rugs, once functional pieces for the home as either table decorations or wall art, embody a unique blend of folk art creativity and simplicity.
