Collection: The Orphaned Wool Rug Hooking Signature Collection

A curated series of heirloom-quality designs created for rug hookers who appreciate exceptional detail, craftsmanship, and timeless design.

The Orphaned Wool Rug Hooking Signature Collection brings together a select group of distinctive rug hooking designs created by textile artist Kelly Kanyok. Inspired by nature, historic architecture, traditional textiles, and decorative arts, each design is thoughtfully developed with an emphasis on artistic detail, considered composition, and the beauty of traditional fiber arts.

Signature Collection Format

Each design is exclusively offered as a hand-drawn linen pattern, providing a professionally prepared foundation ready for rug hooking.

To maintain the quality and distinction of this collection, Signature Collection designs are not available as paper patterns or PDF downloads. New designs will be introduced selectively throughout the year.

Detailed Color & Placement Guide

Each design includes a detailed, full-color guide illustrating the design, color placement, and wool color distribution.

As an added feature, the guide includes DMC embroidery floss color names and numbers used as color references during the design process. These references offer a closer look at the colors that inspired the original wool palette and provide an additional resource when selecting materials for your project.

Use the DMC references to purchase individual floss skeins as physical color samples, help select or dye wool, or compare colors with wool already in your stash.

Because printed colors can vary and wool naturally differs in texture and depth, these references are intended as a helpful guide rather than an exact color match or requirement for your finished rug.

Discover the Collection

Each Signature Collection release is thoughtfully selected for its distinctive character, artistic detail, and lasting appeal. These designs offer a rewarding rug-hooking experience and the chance to create a finished piece to enjoy for years to come.
