Donna Roald, a member of Whonnock Weavers & Spinners, worked on a traditional hand-hooked rug for her granddaughter at the annual open house on Sunday. This technique dates back to the 19th century, when early settlers created rugs from discarded feed sacks and scraps of fabric. Today these pieces are considered folk art.
