EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW TO MAKE A RUG // RUG TUFTING 

This whole video felt like a friend made it specifically for me to show me through the process and I mean that in the best way possible. Amazing video, thank you!

Never in my life i thought I would wanna make a rug so much :3

Thank you! I'm going to start tufting for fun. Can't wait.

Such a helpful video mate! Got my rug gun coming this Friday and was a little nervous for diving right into it but now I feel I’m ready!! You’re the man!

If this wasn’t such a specific niche you would have millions of followers! Never have I been thoroughly entertained and educated! Thank You!

I LOVED this video! Thank you for making this so easy to understand and be excited about.

Explained it like a true pro. Thank you

Thank you so much for sharing. I have been thinking about making my own rug but does not know how to go about doing it. You inspire me to want to do it anytime soon. Thanks. Great job!

I cannot wait to get started and hone the craft. Very inspiring and made the typical barriers to entry seem really attainable and less intimidating. Thank you for taking the time to make a great vid!

Such a thorough and helpful video! Thanks so much for taking you’re time to explain everything ❤❤

Very soothing video to watch 🙏🏽

Wow 🤩 Thank you very much for explaining it, from the beginning to the end, step by step, for the clarity, knowledge and patience, God bless you and your family 🙏

I'm so excited to start making rugs. I've seen so many people do it, and it made something in my brain click. I'm gonna be buying everything this Wednesday 😁 thank you for this amazing video

This was hella helpful. I just got my gun but was kind of unsure on the yarn feeding process, so your method of undoing and redoing is sick

Great video and rug is amazing!🤯🤯🤯 I just ran across the tufting machine and omg another expense for me but I’m so in love!Appreciate you sharing all of your hard work!💜💜💜💜

Que precioso trabajo, gracias por compartirlo. Saludos desde Argentina

Best video on tufting I’ve watched. Super simple to follow and straight to the point. I’m confident I can buy a machine and do it right

This is the coolest things I have seen in a long time!!!! Thank you for this video, for the creative boost and for all of the details, hints and steps!!!! I'm a tad excited about the possibilities : )

The whole video was very informative. I like the explanations about the tools. Thanks for this!

So much more detailed and helpful than many of the other tufting videos out there! Your eye for design is sickkkk

Dude, even though I knew what was coming at the end, the reveal was still amazing and impressive.

Great videos as always! Always inspiring me to learn a new skill! Great result too!

Phenomenal job and very informative! Thanks for being so descriptive in you tutorial.

Great tutorial. Thanks a bunch

I love this rug man. It’s beautiful. I just got into this hobby and was doing my rugs by punch needle first my tufting gun gets here tomorrow and I’m stoked.

This has been the BEST most helpful video out there!! Everything that’s said is SO useful & so organized, I don’t know why I didn’t click on this video sooner. Thank you for elaborating but also still keeping it very simple. I’ve never watched a full RU-vid video before but this went by like it was 5 minutes for me!!

Wow. Very entertaining and great demonstration. Thanks for your patience and you’re very talented..

thanks for the lesson and inspiration! Oh the possibilities

This is so dope love your energy and this is so calming and inspiring to watch

You have no clue how happy this just made me. You make us other artists be so proud of you!

A truly complete video tutorial. I've learned so much and have been inspired by your work. Thank you for being so thorough! Subbed.

Best video explaining everything! The rug is so dope!

This the best video ever I appreciate how you’re detailed about how each part of the gun works and how to adjust that was very educational, second the details about what to use and how I’m thankful I can start tufting now over watch numerous videos glad I stopped here keep up the awesome work and I love the plants!

I absolutely loved this tutorial! Your home is gorgeous! I’m a proud plant owner also

This is the best explanation video so far, the video itself it’s making me wanna do it, it’s crazy

This was one of the best tutorials I have seen out so far.

the way youve broken done everything is so much less scary! been punch needling for a bit and moving on to tufting and this is giving me more hope as a new tufter!

Incredibly talented and inspiring. I’m learning to sew and hope to learn this skill as well. Great channel ☀️💛

Great video, thanks for sharing your knowledge 👌

What a GREAT video! Love love love 19:15 where you overdubbed, 😭 crying!!!! Many thanks!

Well done! Your rug is beautiful and I feel like I could do one myself!

please continue w rug making vids - easily the best I’ve seen on the platform

You helped me out a lot with this video.. I’m going to do this myself and try making some rugs now

Great video. VERY informative. Thank you!

Cool! Super helpful. Very informative without being overly preachy. I hate when tutorials take forever to get to the point. I loved the over-dubbed temper tantrum. Didn’t expect that Easter egg of fun. I was halfway through it before I realized what was happening. Had to rewind and start over. “SHOOOOOT!!”

WOW🤩👏🏼❤ I Loved watching you create your MASTERPIECE of an area rug! It’s absolutely stunning and I THANK YOU for teaching all of us exactly how to do this! I will definitely try to make my own by starting small, of course and give it a whirl! 😁Looking forward to seeing you create some more awesome things! I enjoy learning new things and I’m so happy to have found and subscribed to your channel!

amazing video, so much detailed know how. thanks!

This is the BEST rug tutorial ive seen!!!

This is literally the best tutorial I have ever watched on here about anything. Great job

Would love to make a piece that big, time to build a bigger frame 😎 turned out amazing!!

As someone else said, this is the most educational video I have seen. Specially love the explanation of the workings of the gun.

I now want to go out and buy all the supplies and make my own rug !! Thank you 🙏🏻 really enjoyed watching and learning from you!!

This is actually pretty amazing

30 minutos muy bien invertidos en mi día! No tenía idea de lo entretenido que se ve hacer eso y hasta tengo ganas de hacer algo así en casa. Muchas gracias!

Only on the explanation of the gun and im already grateful I found this video. really well explained so far :D

Anyone else find the sped up hammering satisfying to listen to?!?

thanks for going into detail! i really want to pick this up as a new hobby, watching this video made me realize i may have to wait till i move out of an apartment building though. i didn’t take into account how loud the machine/shears are 😔

I felt like i was part of the process. Much love from South Africa 🇿🇦❤️❤️

All the repair parts can be ordered quickly and cheaply from the factory in Shandong, China. They are very knowledgeable and helpful and can tell you what to anticipate as far as maintenance and even a few improvements! Thanks for a great video. That was a lot of fun and made me want to get a gun to make rugs for my grandkids and maybe try my hand at turning child’s crayon pictures into custom rugs for their room. I used to lay/repair carpet and there is a heavier pro gun that is not nearly so much fun to use. But at those shops you can find special carpet knap scissors that give perfectly level cuts when you find minor imperfections. Also, in the 70’s we used gunny sacks from the local feed store to make rug patches for professional carpet repairs. It holds up and stretches roughly the same as the jute backing on most carpets.

Such a good teacher!! I recently fell in love with this process but I’m in Cameroon 🇨🇲 and it’s hard to get any of these equipments but thank you sooo much for this video ❤️❤️❤️

Omg this is really inspired me! M gonna buy a gun and projector😂

Thank you so much for the video!😊 And the design u have chosen is so cool!❤😍

thank you so much for this video!!! i even took notes for when i start making my rugs, im kinda nervous but this help me a lot, thanks again!!!

Great video! I don't put my yarn on cones either. There's times I can't find the middle yarn or it gets stuck and I have to use the outside yarn. I just put the yarn in a container as I pull it. I didn't have any paper clips so I used the metal ties that came in the packaging. The rug turned out great💜. You kitty is too cute

This video was amazingly helpful, informative, and fun to watch. usually I always fast forward but I watched the whole thing! Thank you so much for taking the time out to make this for us. I've had my tufting kit in the box for months and I've been daunted to start. The only thing I don't have are the sheep shearshehehehrworchestershire's so I was wondering if clippers would work as I've seen in other videos? I also don't have those either LOL but they'd be way cheaper as I'm completely new to this. anyways thank you again!!!!

It's amazing how crafting relaxes your body mind and spirit

This was the best informational video I may have ever seen on YT, for real.

Wow! This was literally the most helpful video all in one that I have watched. I have been trying to tuft for four months now and it never turns out right! Turns out the scissors on my tufting gun are not closing at all, my fabric isn't right and I am only using one strand of yarn in my tufting gun.. Thank you so much for this video! Your rug looks amazing!

This is so nice! Although I have a really big frame, I have yet to brave a really but rug. I might try to make one. Also, I keep forgetting to mirror my image when I transfer it onto the fabric. Lol

Wow! Thank you very much for sharing this!

You really did a great Job.. im just starting This is inspiring! Thnks

Love your result! Very inspiring and now I am asking myself how much did this entire project cost? Gun and frame including . BTW great channel! Best regards from Berlin!

Loved your voice over! lol

That's new...thank you for sharing...Your rug is super cool

This is so beautiful!!! I cant wait to learn how to make them on my own 😍

Can you make a list of the machines and products you used please? Beautiful & clean work

protip...or rather, tip from personal experience. USE GLOVES AND WEAR A MASK when working with spray adhesives like gorilla and locktite. The VOCs in those can cause legit nerve damage. I have only regained partial feeling in the middle fingertip on my right hand and that was after a project I completed in may....of 2020. edit: in particular avoid any and all exposure (particularly skin and respiratory contact) to xylene compounds, trichloroethane, difluoroethane, and any resins in general. some resins will cause you to become allergic to them after only one exposure. I'm not one of those youtube commenters trying to say " YOU ARE DOING IT WRONG, AHH!" some of this is common sense and best practices stuff but this is a particularly insidious risk, because not a lot of people actually know how hazardous fixatives and spray adhesives can be.

Thank you for the awesome tutorial

Finally someone who explains the yarn part ! 🙌🏽 Mines kept coming out of my gun it was so annoying

Amazing! gained tons of knowledge thank you very much. May I ask how long did this rug take to complete?

This is so cool! It makes sense now why rugs can be so expensive!

This really help me out because yesterday actually making my first rug and it really didn’t go good it was to the point that I was a little discouraged to try again but with this video it gave me a little bit more willpower to try again:)

I've been really interested in possibly maybe getting into rug tufting lately. I love to draw and paint, I love to sew, and this just seems so much more metal! I'd love to make custom rugs

Thank you for this amazing video. I feel so much more confident to start my first project! One more question: What is the estimated amount of yarn per square meter? Is there any kind of calculation based on the yarn thickness? Thank you so much!

Very inspired from this video to try and make my own rugs, this piece is so damn awesome! Btw, what kind of fabric did you use, thank you. 🙏🏼

Oh no! Now I need a tufting gun! Thank you! Awesome video, lots of work in making that

This is definitely the best tutorial video I’ve ever seen

It's amazing! May I know what kind of fabric you use for the back of the rug?

nice big piece of work!!!! may i know what is the material of the clothes?

Seu trabalho ficou lindo !!! Parabéns !!

Amazing work mate, looks incredible!!

Great video, very educative content, just one question! How long did it take you to make this masterpiece?

This is really awesome and helpful! I was thinking about getting into tufting myself and this is a huge help. Could you link the original art/artist? Super curious about it since the design is awesome.

Watched less than 60 sec and already grateful for this video and the series 🤗

It’s so inspiring and so cool !!! Good job! Thank you so much for this video ! I’ll be waiting for more cool stuff!!! 😊

You’re so talented! The carpet is gorgeous! I hope I can ask, how much time does something this size take to make by hand and how many rolls of yarn do you go through for a project this size? No doubt your cat loves the carpet! 💕 Awesome video!

Your video is really inspiring and I would love to get involved in tufting rugs. In my country here is no such technology or materials for this art . Could you tell me exactly what time does it take to tuft one square? and which is the best yarn to use?

👀 whaaaattt....?? OOO I am excited!!! I didn't even know this was possible!!!! SO AWESOME!! THANK YOU for sharing!!

I have to say this is the most helpful video so far on youtube, including the process and the materials. Really, im from VN and i dont even know how to call them in Vietnamese, but thanks to your video now i know it :)) Thanks a lot, your work is amazing!!

Ok, so the "embroidery fabric" you were looking at is called Aida, and it was created & is used specifically for cross-stitch. Hand-embroidery is traditionally done on linen (or any even-weave fabric). Traditional hooked rugs are also done on a variety of evenweave fabrics, including monk's cloth, linen, burlap, or rug warp. I assume a rug tufting gun would also work on those fabrics, typically at 12 or 13 thread count. Just don't try to use *aida* for anything but cross-stitch. It's a weird, stiff fabric!
