I have used a locker hook. When I first tried using the standard rug canvas - that white scratchy stuff, it was tough going and and found it to rough and my hands ached. Tried again with soft canvas (brown like 'tapestry' canvas) that I gently hand-washed and block dried to get rid of the sizing. It was softer and more pliable and certainly easier on the hands.
