Shaggy Chic Selvedge
Rugs
The rug chenille
that is used for these soft pile rugs
is a byproduct of a weaving mill. The
selvedges are cut from the edges or
the woven web of fabric and become
scrap which make wonderful
"twice-woven" rugs.
The yarns are high quality and most
are machine-washable. The following
pictures are representative of some of
the colorways, but the supply changes
frequently and some colors are very
limited. These rugs are extremely
popular due to their modern look and
wide range of fashionable colors.

Fabric and
Traditional Rag Rugs
Fabric rugs are made from
cotton or a cotton/polyester blend. They
can be woven in stripes,
a hit-and-miss pattern, or
with a traditional striped pattern at each
end.
The advantages of fabric rugs
include the large number of colors
available,
the ease of care in
high-traffic areas, and the possibility for color-coordinating with other
parts of a room.

Corduroy Rugs
recycled from clothing
Corduroy rugs are cut from recycled clothing.
Strips are cut from skirts or the legs of
pants, blended into colorways, and sewn
together to make strips for weaving. The color
changes in the corduroy rugs can be very
subtle, and a moderate range of colors is
available. Construction, however, is very
time-intensive. This style is being phased out
because of procurement issues. Remaining stock
is shown in

Denim rugs recycled
from blue jeans
Denim rugs are made from recycled blue jeans. Pants
are deconstructed, removing the waistband,
pockets, zipper and seams. Strips
are cut from the remaining fabric, blended
into colorways, and sewn together to make
strips for weaving. The color changes in the
denim rugs can be very subtle, reflecting the
life that the jeans previously lived, and a
small range of colors is available.
Construction, however, is very time-intensive
which adds to the price.

Sock and
Sockloop Rugs
Sockloop
rugs are made from the small ring of
material that is knit during the
manufacture of knit socks. It gives the
finishing machine something to hold onto
while the toe is sewn shut. Then it is cut
free from the sock and becomes waste.
Loopers may be cotton, acrylic, or wool,
depending on the factory and what type of
socks are being knit there. Unfortunately,
many of the sock factories have left the
USA and good loopers are getting hard to
obtain.
We also produce loops by cutting up
defective socks. Dropped stitches or
mechanical errors create perfect supply
which can be cut into loops and made into
soft and cushy rugs.
Loops are strung together and then
woven. Sock and looper rugs are especially
good for bathrooms (because they are
absorbent), or where a soft rug is needed
(in front of a sink). Color selection is
limited. Check out our rugs for sale in
the rug
gallery.
