How long does it take to make a hooked rug?
A fast puncher, using bulky weight rug yarn, can punch a square foot in approximately three hours. This doesn’t count all the time it takes to figure out what colors to put where! I tend to spend a lot of time taking things out and re-punching until I’m happy. Obviously, the more detailed and complicated the rug, the longer it will take. I haven’t had a chance to time myself using the new “Mini” needle yet! Everything I’ve made has been kind of complicated and I think I’ve spent more time pulling things out than putting them in! I did punch the 5 ½” square (shown above) to see how far one ounce of worsted weight rug yarn would go.
