The rug making process includes cleaning, washing, and dyeing the wool, and then weaving the rug with vegetable-dyed wool. Due to the handmade nature of these rugs, the size may vary from as advertised by up to 4 inches. Regular vacuuming and annual professional cleaning will keep your rug looking new for years to come. The majority of the weavers are women who live in the villages of Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, and India. By supporting this product, you are creating more jobs for female weavers who otherwise would not have the opportunity to do so. The community also thrives from rug weaving as the local farmers benefit from wool sales, and the local artisans create natural and vegetable dyes for the weavers to use in their designs. Imported
