Mountain
Rug School
With more than twenty-five years of
experience teaching students at all levels,
Green Mountain
Rug School offers traditional and contemporary rug-hooking
classes annually, in June, on the scenic
Vermont Technical
College campus, in Randolph Center, Vermont. Classes range
from wide-cut, primitive, and folk art to fine-cut,
shading, pictorials, dyeing, penny rugs, and
beginner's-level instruction. Teachers hail from all over
the United States. Rug
exhibits and a well-stocked rug supply shop are open
daily.

Local Rug Hooking
Classes &
Hook-ins
For central Vermont
residents, Green Mountain Hooked Rugs offers custom-wool
dyeing and rug-hooking classes year round at the shop in
Montpelier. Saturday afternoon hook-in gatherings --
offered the first Saturday of the month, October through
May -- bring rug
hookers together to exchange ideas while they hook in a
comfortable setting, much like the traditional "sewing
circles" of a past era (call ahead for availability).
Classes on a variety of
techniques, instructed by Stephanie or guest teachers,
are offered the third Saturday of every month, October
through May.
Need some one-on-one
instruction? Stephanie is happy to offer private lessons
at $25 per hour. To arrange a convenient time, please
email or call 802-223-1333.
Rug
Hooking Weekends in Vermont
Annually in
April, Stephanie teaches at two lovely Vermont country
inns to offer rug hooking getaways for those seeking a
weekend of intensive rug hooking, coupled with
comfortable lodging and fine dining.
