ABSTRACT:
A novel stand is provided for holding a hooked rug in order to facilitate the construction of the hooked rug. The stand comprises a pair of upright supports which extend generally vertically and in a spaced apart relationship relative to each other. A first elongated roller is disposed in between the upright supports near their upper end. A second elongated roller is also disclosed in between the upright supports at a position spaced downwardly from the upper roller and so the axes of both rollers are substantially parallel with each other. The free ends of a V-shaped strut are secured to each upright support so that each strut extends laterally outwardly from its respective upright support while an elongated rod is supported between the joined ends of the struts so that the rod is parallel to and laterally spaced away from the rollers. A plurality of hooks are secured to each of the rollers and the hooks on one roller engage one edge of a pattern for the hooked rug while, similarly, the hooks on the other roller engage the opposite edge of the hooked rug pattern. Moreover, the hooked rug pattern is positioned partially around the rod so that a portion of the pattern is disposed between the upper roller and the rod at a position which is accessible to the person constructing the hooked rug in order to facilitate the hooked rug construction. Moreover, both of the rollers are rotatably mounted to the upright supports so that as the hooked rug is constructed, it can be coiled around the lower roller which simultaneously positions an unhooked portion of the hooked rug pattern in between the upper roller and the rod. The rollers, moreover, can be locked at any desired rotational position.
