Hobianna Magnetic Hoops
A magnetic hoop holds fabric between two wooden frames with strong magnets; with no screw or ring it leaves no mark and lets you work on areas a round hoop cannot stretch, such as towel borders and narrow edges. Hobianna's own Olivia series comes in 9×9 and 14×14 cm laser-cut squares. All Hobianna hoops are in Hoops; classic wooden and clip hoops in Hoops.
Where to Use It
Towel borders, prayer rug edges, stitchable cards and bookmarks, mini embroidery motifs and displaying finished work; slide the hoop along the fabric as you go. The 9×9 cm suits towels and mini motifs, the 14×14 cm borders and small panels. It grips fabric up to 2 mm thick, so towels and felt work fine.
