How do you put binding on latch hook rug?

Putting binding on a latch hook rug isn't too difficult. After you have finished hooking the rug, trim the unused netting back so that you have a width of two squares of blank canvas at the edge of your finished work. Then, you will take binding tape and fold it over those edges up to the edge of your fabric, using a separate piece on all four sides. You will use a sturdy thread, such as what you would use to sew on a button, in a color which will blend in to sew the binding tape to the rug using a whip stitch.
