Hooked Rug

how do I make my own latch hook rug kit?
I am designing my own latch hook rug but do not know how to calculate how much wool i need for each colour. I would be buying ready cut wool. Any views on the best canvas would be helpful too. Thank you in advance.
Weren't Readicut always the biggest of the rug kit manufacturers. I once did about 6 inches of a rug when I was about 9. Got bored and my mum had to finish it off!
Looks like they are still going strong - maybe their site has some help on it? It certainly tells you the number of vertical and horizontal holes on their canvas.
