SHILLCRAFT BOOK OF READICUT RUGS VOL 29
Sarah Hartwell, 2019

Most of the Shillcraft version of the catalogue is identical to the Readicut Vol 29, so I have only included the pages that were specific to the US edition. It mentions that no bulky, expensive frames are required for latch-hooked rugs and it was hard to make mistakes; it could even be done while watching TV. Stage payments were also shown - a rug could be paid for in "units" with the canvas, latch-hook and first batch of wool arriving in Unit 1, and the subsequent units containing additional wool until the rug was completed.
