FAQs

What size is the finished rug?

The approximate finished size of the rug is 50 x 40cm (20 x 16 inches).

Is this kit suitable for children?

Yes, this kit is rated 'easy' and is suitable for children under adult supervision, as it involves using a tool.

What materials are included in the kit?

The kit includes a hand-painted canvas, cut packs of acrylic yarn, a latch hook tool, a front sheet picture, and instructions in 8 languages.

What is the canvas made of?

The canvas is made of 52% cotton and 48% polyester.

How long will it take to receive my order?

Please note that this product is stored in a third-party warehouse, so dispatch will take longer. Allow extra time for your parcel to be despatched. Consider ordering this item separately if you need other items urgently.

Can I wash the finished rug in a washing machine?

No, it is not recommended to machine wash or tumble dry the finished rug. Hand wash gently with cold water and lay flat to dry.

What does 'large hole canvas' mean?

A large hole canvas means the grid openings are bigger (18 holes/10cm), making it easier and faster to insert the yarn with the latch hook tool, which is ideal for beginners.

Troubleshooting

Yarn tangling during use

Ensure you are only pulling one strand of yarn at a time through the hook and that the yarn pack is not overly compacted. Keep the working yarn area tidy.

Difficulty inserting the latch hook

Check that you are using the correct holes on the canvas, which are designed to be large. Ensure the hook is straight and not bent.

Finished rug looks uneven

Try to maintain consistent tension when pulling the yarn through. Ensure each knot is pulled snugly but not excessively tight. You can trim any significantly longer yarn strands at the end for a neater appearance.

Running out of a specific yarn color

Double-check that all provided yarn packs have been used according to the pattern. If a mistake was made and a color was used incorrectly, you may need to purchase a similar acrylic yarn separately to complete the project. Contact customer support if you suspect a kit wasShort-supplied.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  2. Identify the starting point on the canvas and corresponding yarn colors as per the pattern.
  3. Hold the latch hook tool with the hook facing away from you.
  4. Insert the hook through a large hole in the canvas from front to back.
  5. Grab a strand of yarn with the hook.
  6. Pull the hook back through the hole, creating a loop.
  7. Use the latch on the tool to release the yarn, leaving a knot around the canvas grid.

Compatibility: This kit is a self-contained craft project and does not require external compatibility with other products.

Care:

  • Cleaning the finished rug: It is recommended to spot clean any spills immediately with a damp cloth. For a more thorough clean, hand wash gently with cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid harsh scrubbing.
  • Drying: Lay flat to dry, away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  • Storage: Store the finished rug rolled or folded in a dry place to prevent damage.
