This collection brings together handwoven, flatweave, tufted and knotted rugs from independently owned weavers and studios, in wool, jute, cotton and recycled fibre.

In a sitting room the front legs of the seating should sit on the rug; in a bedroom you want it to extend past the bed on the sides you actually get out of; under a dining table it needs to be big enough that chairs stay on it when pulled out. Get that right and the rest is a pleasure. Get it wrong and no amount of good weaving will save it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWool, jute, cotton, and what each one is for.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWool is resilient, takes dye beautifully and sheds for the first few months, which is normal and stops. Jute is hard-wearing and textural but does not enjoy damp, so it is happier in a bedroom than a bathroom. Flatweaves are reversible and easy to live with; a pile rug is warmer underfoot and harder to clean. Handmade rugs vary from the photograph, which is the point of them.
