Show and Tell - Shaggy Rug


I made this rug while demonstrating at the Camp Creek Threshers in Waverly July 22, using selvages I'd purchased this summer from the Pendleton Outlet Store in Nebraska City. I used a hairbrush to raise the nap on the weft after each shot. I used carpet warp sett at 6 epi. It took about 5 hours to weave. Size: 26" X 40"
I'm looking forward to making more of these rugs as they go so quickly and they are quite cheap to make. Should make nice Christmas gifts!
