Rag Rug "A Walk in the Woods" buying OOAK

pine needles crunch underfoot, .the pungent odor of mushrooms and ancient trees trail through dark green pines

This rug is woven of a deep olive green Corduroy paired with a sage corduroy. A friend of mine inherited the entire stash of an avid sewer. I amounted to several bags of wonderful fabrics. She kept the ones she could use and gifted me with some very large yardages of corduroy and a couple animal prints. I was able to weave two rugs from this beautiful corduroy.

Warp is done in stripes of Natural, Sage and Dark Green accented with black
It is a polycotton warp

The size of this rug is 24x41
Length of rug does not include the length of hand knotted fringe

My greatest joy in weaving comes in color exploration. Weaving rag rugs allows me to combine colors in ways that I might not have thought of if the "rags" were not in front of me, daring me to put them together.

All my rugs are woven on a large vintage "Weaver's Delight" rug loom built in 1942. The whole house shakes when I am weaving. The designs are my own and I have won several awards for my work. I use 100% recycled materials in my wefts and either cotton or polyester warp. My rugs are machine washable in warm or cool. It is best to line dry. Give the fringe a good shake to straighten it and hang over a clothesline or rail. With a bit of care this rug will last buying a good many years.

Shipping is included on this rug when sent within the contiguous United States. I am happy to ship elsewhere. Please contact me before purchase so that I may provide you with an accurate rate.

The little boy in the picture is my beloved late husband going off to Kindergarten with his little rug, little realizing how many hundreds of rugs he would later haul after hitching up with a weaver
