Careful, Sleeping Beauties, it's sharp! Here's a close-up of the spinning process when fluffy wool becomes a more easily controlled fiber. By most accounts, humans have been spinning yarn by hand for well over 10,000 years. The finely crafted rugs we offer may be contemporary in design, but they are steeped in tradition.

With all of this talk about microplastics, have you ever considered what's underfoot in your own home? The average American spends 87% of their life indoors. Shuffling along over petroleum-based textiles causes the shedding of microplastics that end up anywhere dust does - in our lungs, our water, and our food.
Natural fiber rugs are healthier for you, your children, and your pets. Bonus points when they're also dyed with plants (like ours are).

Utilizing traditional production methods and tools to spin, dye, and weave our rugs is truly a labor of love. The artisans that we work with pour so much time and energy into every piece.
How many hours would you guess it takes to create a rug from start to finish? 🧐👇
Naturally dyed, handwoven, ecofriendly, and available in a huge range of colorways! Our pieces are the perfect finishing touch for your interiors. Layer them, drape them, hang them, and use them to warm up any space. 💙

3 reasons why we love having our wool, flatweave rugs in our spaces:
1️⃣ They are super durable and, because of their tight weave, can withstand years of traffic.
2️⃣ Wool is naturally stain resistant! To care for your rug, spot treat any spills when they happen and otherwise just take your rug outside every once in a while for a good shake.
3️⃣ The materials, dyes, and weaving process used are 100% natural and ecofriendly. So you can feel good about cozying up your home knowing that you're supporting small, women-owned businesses in a sustainable way.
Any questions about rug care? Send us a DM and we can help!
