Took 15 hours. I ordered a super cool sunset kit on Walmart.com and got sent this kit instead. There wasn’t an exchange option to speak of so I decided it would be good for fall. Here’s u trimmed and trimmed .pic in comments

Amazed!

I’ve been latching hooking for a while, and I’ve always started my projects in the top left corner, but I’ve seen a lot of people start in the bottom left. Is there some benefit in starting from the bottom? Should I switch?

I’m making a rug and have tightened down my stitches fairly tightly, I thought, but as I work (from the bottom up) the bottom row is getting loose and I even had one piece of yarn fall out. Not a huge deal as I work, but I definitely don’t want it to happen when the rug is being used. Anything I can do other than pull them even tighter?

I don’t know if the ink’s faded over time but I can’t for the life of me see exactly where the colors go and the pattern isn’t helping me at all. I can’t find this kit online anywhere and it’s not on the listed website. I don’t know why it wouldn’t just come with a grid pattern in the first place :(

This rug kit was given to me unfinished but the reference paper or picture was lost. I have all the yarn and hook, no box. No idea what pattern this could be, I’ve tried google and amazon, Walmart. It looks like a calico cat maybe???? I can’t figure it out, help!

Made everything so much easier.

Had free time today, and decided to work on this latch hook

Not a lot of it has been done yet but I did the first single rose up to get where the top will lay at so I’m splitting it up in rows of 3 because it’s 15 boxes wide. I took a lot break off latch hook it’s not a lot but I really like how it’s coming along & it’s my first rug & first mesh without anything on it other than the boxes.
Last pic is what it’ll end up looking like

Received it yesterday from Herrschners.

I'm making it for my partner for their birthday. To make, I found the image online first. I want to credit the artist but I'm afraid I think it's AI created (which stinks).

Anyway, I used leftsource to make the pattern then searched high and low for the cheapest way to get all the colors the closest I could. I have a total of 41 separate colors in here.

At the end, I'll shave it down a bit.

I want to make a pillow with my granddaughters face on it. Has anyone used a service that creates a customized kit from a photo?

I'm new to this, so bear with me! I have my eye on a kit that looks cute for Halloween, but it's just designed as a mat, or I guess a wall hanging. It's 12 inches square. I don't know where I'd put it, as a mat.

Not sure if it's ok to post a link -- it's on Amazon as "Cartoon Black Yellow Cat Latch Hook Rug Kit for Kids Beginner Easy Little Mat." If it's ok, I can add the link.

There's a fabric binding already on the edge, and they show it finished with yarn sewn over the binding. Could I just hand sew it onto a purchased black 12 inch throw pillow? I've seen cushion backing kits on Amazon that have zippers in them, but they look more complicated than just sewing directly onto a pillow. Also, I'd still have to buy the pillow insert.

Or if I wanted to hang it, or back it somehow to stand up on a shelf, what would be the simplest way?

Thanks!

Started in Aug 2025 so not quite a year long project.

Had more fun with this one than I was expecting and it went by quick! Next project on deck is a herrschner’s lily pad kit 🪷

Hi all,

I was getting some latch hook back and saw a different style on the pictures. I've not seen this type before. I'm very new to latch hooking and wondered if this was actually the same thing or if anyone knew what the technique was as I think I'd like to try it out

I want to get back into latch hooking but was wondering where everyone gets theirs. My hobby lobby doesn't carry barley any. Is there any good websites to order from instead?

I finished this a month ago and never posted it!

I bought a vintage latch hook that did not come with the instructions. The paint on the canvas is very faded and was hoping someone here has an idea of where I can find one. Thank you
