No, those strips are too wide,
And those strips are too thin,
But those strips are just right.
Remember how I said I didn't think I was using up very many of those never ending worms? That in this tote it looked like I had hardly used any at all.
When I went to my class with Katie Hartner last month I shoved those worms into a 2 gallon hefty bag. It was full. I ended up not hooking on my hit n miss rug because I was #2 in the teacher's rotation. So I put this project back into it's tote bag. I added more worms to the bag when I had rejects from my new project. I separated the worms that were too fat or too thin. Occasionally I used these when I hooked the last row in each square. Sometimes I needed a fat row, and sometimes I needed a skinny row.
This is where I'm at today. Wowzers, I have used up quite a bit.
Through the past month I've worked on this rug off and on. I have days where I hook a lot, then a week or so of nothing. I got it back out yesterday and look now. I only have three squares to complete, plus a couple rows of black border. I will at least finish the squares this week. I will have to find some solid looking black, then cut it, hook it, you know the routine.
Just remember those worms will multiply while you sleep!

Rugs and Pugs
I hook with Pam Bartlett every other week and she has lots of containers with worms free for the picking. She calls it her worm farm and a good farmer she is especially with all her students helping. I should hook one of those rugs nice a large for my family room, but I always go way over my head and hook some crazy rug I love but do not have the skills for.
