Poppy Poses with Pair of Hookers.


An artist who creates a hooked rug is, well, an artist, yes, but also a hooker. A rug hooker, but in the vernacular -- a hooker who gets together with fellow hookers to hook, and sometimes attends hook-ins.

Ol' Poppy poses above at the Fall Hook-in today (10/2) in Stillwater, MN. Hundreds of hookers were there to display their creations, exchange hooking tips, and buy wool. Lots and lots of wool for rugs to be hooked this Minnesota winter.

I grabbed two hookers for a foto op -- Pam Broat on my right, and Nancy "Sam" Hoyt, on my left. Talk about a lucky guy!
