Just what it says on the tin - craft and random 'stuff' from Gillian M Reid. I'm on Folksy and Ravelry as Astrojill. My other blog (it's around somewhere) is mainly reviews - of places, products, books and so on. My twitter posts are even more random, and Facebook? Well, you don't want to know.

OK, what is it??
Not a veg peeler... got this for a cool 30p. Is it a rug tool?
mine is the traditional hook (I am dlg on ravelry) but this one looks more like yours http://www.theruggery.com/p-257-craftsman-punch-needle.aspx you use it from the back of the rug and probably thread the yarn through the top hole as opposed to passing it through the handle as shown in the illustration
looks like a rug punch tool to me, maybe it is missing a piece - that little spring thingie
ReplyDeleteOh, I feared there'd be some missing. Thank you anyway :-) at least I know what it is, now...
