About
1000 ft from l'Église Saint-Pierre, and next to the Cheticamp Co-op,
you will find the Coopérative Artisanale, a gift shop/museum/restaurant,
incorporated in 1963 by a group of cooperative-minded individuals wishing to assure the survival of the rug-hooking industry by buying
and selling these artistic creations. This particular co-op specializes
in the wholesale and retail of hooked rugs, hangings, doilies, coasters,
etc. This art has its own style and designs. Most of the creations
incorporate pastel colours and shaded flowers, bordered with green
leaves. However, more and more, we find hooked sceneries, portraits,
and rugs made to very precise specifications.
