. . . it's not handmade if there's no blood! Personally, I prefer to work injury free.

If you've ever tried rug hooking or needle punch on one of those frames with grippers, you've probably experienced a little bit of bloodletting or, at a minimum, road rash. While these hobbies are AWESOME because they can work up quickly and support a vast variety of designs and techniques, it can feel a bit like working with a shark.

Did you know you can cover those teeth with a cozy?

I made one for all three of my frames and the difference is amazing. I can hook longer and put my hands and arms where I want to. 

I now sell these on this site and in my Etsy shop. They are made of fleece (washable, sturdy, and non-shrinkable), and you place them on your frame after you have put your project in place. I then attach my magnets to keep my scissors and needles handy.

I also make these in custom sizes. Some of y'all have some pretty big frames! 

And for those DIYers, I have a pattern too! Check out the links below.
