And the learning continues in Gros Morne thanks to the Gros Morne Institute for Sustainable Tourism and, today, Molly Made Fibre Art Studio. Molly Made is a great, local business success story, and if you’re in Woody Point or the Gros Morne area, you can for free go to the studio and learn how to hook rugs, and take a kit home (and you can also order the kits online if you’re interested).
Local experience can enhance a tourists’ stay, so yesterday, as you can see, we ‘experienced’ hooking rugs, a Newfoundland tradition. Great in concept, and everyone in the class with a greater attention span than me really learned something! It was really fun, and followed by soup and sandwiches (moose and chicken and pea) provided by the Anglican Church vestry.
If you’re in Woody Point or the Gros Morne area, I highly recommend Molly Made – so you can learn to hook rugs, too!
