Many of you have been asking about our plan for rugs. Yes, it is definately coming! It takes a long time to develope a new yarn as we are finding out. We have finally recieved our sample from the manufacturer and it needs a little tweaking. But here’s a glimpse of the raw yarn.
It is mohair and wool, bulky with a little shimmer, and very sturdy for rugs. I love the new colors – beautiful fall tones. We will be starting out with about 12 colors, initially showing the first 4 colors on the site HOPEFULLY by the end of the month. I can’t wait to see the final yarn. As soon as we have it, we will immediately have it on the website. Since we buy direct from manufacturer we will be able to offer great prices.
Here is a rug started on the knitting board.
IT IS NOT THE RUG YARN, but it gives you an idea of the look and thickness you can achieve.
I love the rugs!! The are just wonderful. I can’t wait to try the new yarn too.
Thanks for sharing,

Beautiful rug! I hope to try one! OH! and i love your blog please keep informing us!
Beautiful rug. I’m planning on making one as well. I had one question. If I used a worsted weight yarn, how many yards would it take to make the rug you’re making? What are the dimensions of the rug? Thanks!!
