Rug Hooking gripper Strips<br />

Gripper strips are perfect for rug hooking frames which grip the rug backing<br />

allowing the pattern to be repositioned in seconds. Strips are 7/8” X 40”<br />

long. If you need to cut to size use a utility knife after marking the desired<br />

length and removing any wire staples in the cutting line. A large quilter’s<br />

pin(size 28) works to remove the staples.<br />
