The much anticipated event offered the rare opporunity for total immersion in our craft: 2 days of uninterrpted rug hooking in lovely surroundings among good friends. Beautiful hand dyed wool and other rug hooking supplies were available for sale, provided by several of the attending members who also teach rug hooking and have studios in Northern California. All of the attendees reported a wonderfully relaxing and productive weekend. The Hook-In was such a success that the Guild is considering planning more such events in the future.</div>

We have been planning this event for some time and many of our members are looking forward to two days of uninterrupted rug hooking. <br />
Although we invite and encourage guests to our monthly meetings at the Friends House in Santa Rosa, the off-site April Hook-In will be a members only event. We will resume our regular monthly meetings on the second Saturday of the month in May at Friends House. We look forward to meeting any interested guests who may wish to join us at our May meeting.
